Topics
Howard Lutnick: 我认为,即使短期经济衰退,为了美国的政策,也是值得的。这些政策对美国来说至关重要。我不认为经济衰退的唯一原因是拜登政府的政策。 Emily: 许多富豪认为经济衰退是值得的,但他们并没有解释普通民众需要为此做出哪些牺牲。特朗普政府的关税政策反复无常,令人难以置信,其动机难以捉摸,可能存在多种解释,包括重新工业化、打击芬太尼、经济控制性拆解等。由于特朗普积极采取行动,经济下滑的责任最终将由他承担。特朗普的政策具有不可预测性,这既是其策略,也影响了市场。民调显示,特朗普的政策失误中,关税政策最为突出。评论员将特朗普的政策视为对资本吸引力的损害,而非违宪行为。市场对特朗普关税政策的反应,显示出人们对特朗普言论的重视程度。投资者对特朗普政府的承受能力存在误判。加拿大也使用关税作为其产业政策工具。特朗普对加拿大的最终目标难以预测,可能是为了让在加拿大开展业务的公司更倾向于美国。 Caroline Levitt: 美国正处于经济转型时期,摆脱拜登政府造成的混乱。 CNBC评论员: 特朗普的关税政策反复无常,令人难以置信。
