BlockBeats News, June 26. The U.S. Department of the Treasury officially announced that starting from July 4, eligible U.S. child accounts will begin to automatically receive a $1000 government seed fund, and the accounts will officially be operational. The "Trump Child Investment Account" is expected to inject $30-50 billion of incremental funds directly into the U.S. stock market in the first year. Subsequently, families and employers can contribute up to $5000 per account annually, leading to a continuous influx of billions or even more stable funds, providing long-term buying support.

The "Trump Account," also known as the 530A Account, is an extended tax-deferred investment account plan established by U.S. President Trump on June 9, 2025, under the "Bigger and Better" Act. It is a government-sponsored savings account for U.S. citizen children born from January 1, 2025, to January 1, 2029. The initial funding of the "Trump Account" mainly comes from government appropriations, private donations, and family deposits. The federal government will provide an initial $1000 fund for each account, and parents can contribute up to $5000 per year. At the age of 18, 50% of the funds can be withdrawn, at 25 they can be fully used for education/entrepreneurship, and at 30 there are no usage restrictions.

From an investment perspective, the account will be limited to investing in low-cost index funds or ETFs that track the S&P 500 Index and other broad stock price indices, and cannot be used to invest in specific industry indices or sector indices. Funds are also restricted at the usage level; the funds in the account cannot be withdrawn for any reason before the child turns 18 on January 1 of the year they become a legal adult (unless the child passes away or the funds are transferred to another similar restricted account). The first deposits are scheduled to begin on July 4, 2026 (the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence), just on the eve of the 2026 midterm elections, expected to become an important policy "move" for the Republican Party to court voters.
