The investment in Kura Sushi is not an isolated case. Trump holds stakes in major tech companies like Apple, Amazon, and Alphabet, along with assets in more conventional sectors. Kura Sushi, known for its dishes served on conveyor belts and its use of automated systems for ordering and payments, represents a meeting point between classic dining and digital innovation. Trump's bet suggests he sees potential in the operational efficiency of this business model.

The art of making money roll, literally 🍱

It is curious that someone accustomed to surrounding themselves with gold and large spaces has set their sights on chain sushi. Perhaps Trump plans to add a touch of his style: dishes named after him served on golden trays, or a mandatory tipping system with his signature. Meanwhile, investors wonder if his next move will be to buy shares in a wasabi company or luxury sake.
