According to Bessent, there could be a ‘substantial reduction’ in tariffs on US goods, as the United States negotiates with 17 out of 18 key trade partners.
Alas, nothing with China as of yet…

He then suggested that the 1st quarter GDP will be revised upward, and that we aren’t in a recession.
“I believe in data. There is nothing in the data that shows we are in a recession. As a matter of fact, the jobs report has surprised to the upside.”

Bessent laid out the entire strategy yesterday at the Milken conference…
“Reprivatizing the economy. On one side, we’re going to be bringing down government spending, which has been crowding out the private sector. We’re also going to be shedding excess labor on the government side. Then on the other side, we have a substantial financial deregulatory agenda coming.”
“The private sector can re-leverage, and we’re putting a special focus on community banks, small banks, small regional banks, which were very near what I would call an extinction event in the next 4-5 years. The idea is to get them lending again too.”
