President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs have caused layoffs for some supply chain managers, CNBC<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

Though the rising prices have led some industries to make employment cuts<\/a>, other businesses have been doing well. Here are the fields that career experts say are excelling during President Trump\u2019s second term.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cDefense contractors and military suppliers have gained from the larger federal budgets and increased spending that are being earmarked for national defense and also enjoy significant backlogs and revenue growth,\u201d Francesc Felipe Legaz, application scientist at Berthold Technologies<\/a>, said.<\/p>\n

AI has also aided the defense and aerospace fields. The U.S. aerospace and defense industry generated nearly $1 trillion in economic activity, according to the Aerospace Industries Association<\/a> CEO and president Eric Fanning.<\/p>\n

Reuters<\/a> reported that the United States is the largest and most influential exporter of crude oil and natural gas. Legaz highlighted that energy would be a good industry to enter into due to its recent success.<\/p>\n

\u201cOil, natural gas and related extractive energy industries recently increased production through deregulation and the domestic production of fuels, thus providing jobs and capital investment,\u201d\u00a0Legaz added.<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite political headwinds, healthcare is one of the largest job-producing sectors due to demographic trends and increased longevity, gearing up for significant demand in healthcare,\u201d Legaz said.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics<\/a> (BLS) confirmed this, showing consistent growth in employment numbers for the healthcare and social assistance field.<\/p>\n

Because of the growing use of AI, Saswata Baksi, co-founder of Local Glyph<\/a>, said that he has seen more searches for vocational schools to pursue careers like plumbing and HVAC.<\/p>\n

\u201cChanges in inflation<\/a> and policies have caused digital services to become unstable and caused the workforce to migrate toward hands-on, location-based services, where AI has no chance,\u201d Baksi explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe industries winning are those combining trade skills with modern discovery stacks,\u201d Baksi added. \u201cTo illustrate, being a plumber who uses AI to schedule work and optimize searches based on \u2018Near Me\u2019 is earning a higher profit margin than the average mid-level tech employee.\u201d<\/p>\n
