Year in review: Trump drives uncertain economy
A variety of decisions and statements from President Donald Trump created a great deal of economic uncertainty, especially in California. California's economy ended the year uncertain due to uncertainty over President Donald Trump's policies and actions. Immigration raids, particularly in Los Angeles and surrounding areas, negatively impacted residents, communities, and labor markets. The agricultural and wine industries were also concerned about costs and relationships with their export partners. The tech industry also dealt with policy changes, including Nvidia agreeing to revenue-sharing with the federal government and Intel taking a stake in Intel. Property insurance also impacted California's economy, with insurers previously avoiding writing policies due to increased wildfire risk. The state's unemployment rate hovered above 5% and was among the highest in the nation for most of 2025. Despite these challenges, the AI boom could continue to lead to layoffs in tech and other industries.
