Assuming we have bits of alien technology, it would be very good for whichever US aerospace company (probably Lockheed) was working on the stuff. They’d be much freer to push out technology they would have been dribbling out to make it seem like ordinary terrestrial progress.
Also, very very good for gun stocks.

Hmmm. Liberals would be happy with new energy production tech even if said tech isn’t of earthly origin so green energy stocks would go up. Conservatives would paint alien existence as a threat so defense stocks would go up quite a lot.

You forgot the new citizens of Earth would be consuming Fast Food products [or Humans], so the silver lining for that sector too.

Hmmm… You’re assuming it has new energy production tech. Why can’t it run on coal?

Hmmm…“clean coal” is a made up science fiction technology, so why not indeed?
