Bessent and Lutnick have been the overall mouthpieces for the tariffs (even though Lutnick appears to be the architect) and nothing to do with the tariffs and the associated rise in consumer costs has impressed me. It remains to be seen what the tariff revenue will be used for and if it just turns into a slush fund for discretionary (bailouts) spending then it hasn't helped us much, if at all. Trump just floated the idea again of a $1,000 or $2,000 stimulus, so what was the point?
I'm happy the market is doing well, but it isn't exactly coupled to the economy much anymore. Let's face it, the economic numbers aren't good at the moment.
We'll see how the revenues for the BBB shake out but the early projections aren't stellar. I know the BBB will work out for me personally, but I was hoping for something more fiscally responsible.
Long way to go and lots of good has been done, keep the positive momentum going.
