Trump is expected to be on Wall Street for the formal start of the day’s trading, according to four people with knowledge of Trump’s plans, news agency AP reported. She will also be announced on Thursday as Time’s 2024 Person of the Year, according to a person familiar with the selection. The people who confirmed the NYSE appearance and the time award were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
It was almost six months ago that Donald Trump was sitting in a Manhattan courtroom, hearing about the first former president convicted of a crime by a jury. But on December 12, he would be recognized by Time magazine as Person of the Year at the New York Stock Exchange, just a short walk from that court house. The businessman-turned-politician’s honor represents the latest chapter in his love-hate relationship with New York. They are also a measure of Trump’s remarkable comeback as an ostracized former president who refused to accept his election defeat four years ago to a newly elected president who won a decisive victory at the White House in November.

She was listed as a finalist for this year’s award along with prominent figures including Vice President Kamala Harris, X boss Elon Musk, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Princess Kate of Wales. Time declined to confirm Trump’s selection before the announcement.
