Former President Donald Trump previously spent four years in the White House, which could help investors know which stocks and sectors could benefit under a second term if he wins the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election"> 2024 presidential election.</a>
Here's a look back at the top performing stocks in 2017, Trump's first year in the White House.
Top Performing 2017 Stocks: The stock markets saw impressive gains in 2017, which were among the best ever for a president's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/futures/18/01/11066769/the-stock-markets-rally-under-trump-among-the-best-ever-heres-how-his">first year in the White House.</a>
The S&amp;P 500, which is tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), gained 21.7% in 2017, an impressive gain to the +12.0% increase in 2016, as presidential election years have historically produced outperformance to other years.
With the potential for Trump to be re-elected in 2024, here's a look back at the top 10 performing stocks in the S&amp;P 500 from 2017, as reported previously by <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/biggest-sp-500-winners-and-losers-of-2017-tech-health-care-and-home-builders-lead-2017-12-29">Marketwatch</a>.

</ol>
The top 10 stocks in 2017 likely saw gains related to reasons that didn't have to do with Trump being president, but there are also some common themes and some potential connections to the former president.
The results show that health care, consumer discretionary and technology stocks were among the top-performing sectors.
Of particular note is Micron and Nvidia, both ranking in the top 10, a potential positive for the semiconductor sector under a Trump presidency.
Another key trend could be two homebuilders ranking among the top 10 best-performing stocks in 2017. Homebuilders have been a popular sector to watch under a possible Kamala Harris win with the current vice president and Trump running on a platform of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/08/40424431/harris-warns-trump-tax-plan-will-devastate-americans-vows-to-go-after-bad-actors-behind-food-pri">building more homes</a> for the middle class.

</ul>
Why It's Important: While past results don't guarantee future results, sometimes market trends can show patterns and signs of what to come.
Based on the top-performing stocks in 2017, investors may want to prepare for some <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41213583/what-a-trump-win-could-mean-for-financial-energy-stocks-lessons-from-2016">exposure to health care</a>, utilities, semiconductors and homebuilders if Trump wins the 2024 election.
With less than two weeks until the 2024 election, investors are likely positioning their portfolios based on a Trump or Harris win in some regards. With a close election predicted, investors may want to look to sectors that could benefit under either candidate.

Woods named defense stocks and cybersecurity stocks as two of the top sectors to watch ahead of the 2024 election.
"I think you've got to watch this sector closely," Woods said of the defense sector.
Woods said defense stocks could continue to benefit from geopolitical concerns and a lot of bad things happening in the world.

These 10 Stocks Were The Best S&P 500 Performers In 2017 When Trump Was President: Will History Repeat Itself?

Align Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALGN#NASDAQ">ALGN</a>) shares are trading higher by 3% to $223.00 Friday morning after the company announced plans to repurchase $275 million of its common stock as part of a $1 billion stock repurchase program <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/b41543440/align-technology-announces-275-million-open-market-repurchase">approved in January 2023</a>.
What Else: CFO John Morici highlighted that this buyback reflects confidence in the company&#8217;s financial strength and growth potential within the orthodontic industry. 
The repurchase will occur through open market transactions under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, concluding by January 2025, and will be funded from Align's cash reserves. As of September 30, Align reported 74.8 million shares outstanding and over $1 billion in cash.

Why This Matters: A stock repurchase often leads to a rise in the stock price because it reduces the number of shares outstanding, effectively increasing the value of each remaining share. 
This buyback signals that Align Technology's management is confident in the company&#8217;s financial health and growth prospects, making the stock more attractive to investors. 
Additionally, by using cash reserves to buy back shares, Align demonstrates strong cash flow, which can reinforce investor confidence. These factors together often drive up demand for the stock.
