⬤ Donald Trump delivered a sweeping take on where the U.S. economy stands right now, saying the country's hitting levels of strength and financial momentum it's never seen before. He pointed to major stock indexes breaking records over and over this year, calling it proof that the economy's bouncing back and conditions are getting better.
⬤ Trump said the stock market just hit its 48th all-time high in nine months, which he sees as a clear sign the nation's wealth is growing. He credited tariffs for pulling in what he called trillions of dollars and said that pressure from tariffs even helped shut down some international conflicts. Trump also took shots at what he labeled the worst inflation stretch in U.S. history under Joe Biden, but insisted things have stabilized now and the economy's in solid shape.
⬤ His comments also went after other countries and leaders he claims took advantage of the U.S. economically through unfair trade setups. Trump said those days are over, arguing the legal and political systems won't allow it anymore. He described the current moment as one where America is "the richest, strongest, and most respected" it's ever been, tying that narrative to upcoming political events.
⬤ These statements come during a time when markets are on edge and record equity levels are driving conversations about growth, policy choices, and where the economy's headed. Trump's framing shows how political messaging is starting to shape how people feel about markets, especially as focus builds around who's leading the economy and what fiscal decisions come next.
