Donald Trump Jr.’s Fund Surges from $200M to $2B Through Patriotic Investment Strategies

Patriotism is experiencing a resurgence, coinciding with President Trump’s first year of his second term. This renewed sense of national pride is reflected in the financial sector, particularly through the activities of the 1789 Capital Growth Equity Fund.

The fund, which focuses on U.S. security and capitalism investments, has seen its assets skyrocket from $200 million at the beginning of the year to an impressive $2 billion by December 31, 2025. Due to this rapid growth, the fund is now closed to new investors, as reported by sources to FOX Business. In addition, the firm has launched the 1789 Real Estate Fund, which has already attracted $1 billion in capital within just a few months.

This new fund aims to capitalize on the migration trends from high-tax blue states, such as New York, to more favorable regions like Southern Florida. This shift has created a burgeoning demand for commercial spaces, housing, hospitals, and schools.

Co-founded by investors Omeed Malik and Chris Buskirk, the firm also counts Donald Trump Jr. as a partner. Their early commitment to investing in American ventures has positioned them as key players in the current economic landscape.

Among their notable investments are high-profile companies like Elon Musk’s SpaceX, which is rumored to go public this year with a potential valuation of $1 trillion. Another significant investment is in the AI company Groq, which recently partnered with Nvidia in a deal valued at approximately $20 billion.

Another noteworthy investment is in defense tech company Anduril, founded by Palmer Luckey. In a recent interview with FOX Business’ Liz Claman, Luckey highlighted the company’s advancements in U.S. military technology.

Luckey announced that Anduril is set to begin large-scale manufacturing of the YFQ-44, the first autonomous fighter jet designed for the United States Air Force. This innovative aircraft will operate without a pilot, functioning as a loyal wingman alongside human pilots, allowing for risk-taking maneuvers that would be unsafe for human operators.

Additionally, the firm supports online gun retailer GrabAGun, which has also gained traction in the market.

After its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange in July, Trump Jr. expressed to FOX Business that his investment group’s involvement with GrabAGun serves as a “catalyst for change.” He emphasized that this comes at a time when there is a significant “cultural shift” in attitudes toward the Second Amendment.
