このコンテンツについて
Bessent’s testimony before the House Financial Services Committee provided further insight into his approach. He reiterated that the “America First” strategy does not mean the United States is acting unilaterally, but rather that it aims to assert stronger leadership in international institutions like the IMF and World Bank. His remarks highlighted administration policies centered on tax cuts, deregulation, and tariffs, all considered essential to revitalize domestic manufacturing and grow the American economy. Bessent cited recent labor data, noting that 464,000 new jobs were created in the first 100 days of the administration, with unemployment remaining low and real wages rising.
Recent meetings with global leaders have also reinforced Bessent’s priorities. His session with Prime Minister Philip Davis of the Bahamas focused on deepening bilateral economic cooperation and supporting the Bahamas’ financial sector reforms. Throughout these engagements, Bessent has projected confidence in the resilience of the U.S. economy, drawing on his decades of experience in asset management and echoing the maxim, “Never bet against America.” He has argued that the U.S. economy’s long-term trajectory remains “up and to the right,” emphasizing opportunities for both Main Street and Wall Street in what he describes as a new Golden Age for American prosperity.
However, Bessent’s policies have been met with criticism. Detractors point to the volatility in financial markets following the recent imposition of higher tariffs, which has led to a significant downturn reminiscent of earlier economic crises. They question his assertion that tariffs on Chinese imports will not harm U.S. consumers, as well as the broader consequences of escalating trade tensions.
Despite the political and economic headwinds, Bessent continues to prioritize an agenda that aims to shift the benefits of economic growth from Wall Street to Main Street, arguing that the administration’s strategy will ultimately restore the American Dream for workers and small businesses. As international negotiations unfold and domestic economic indicators remain under close scrutiny, Bessent’s decisions and the outcomes of his diplomatic efforts will likely shape both near-term market sentiment and the broader trajectory of U.S. economic policy.
