In this sitdown interview with Poppy Harlow CNN, legendary investor Warren Buffett reflects on the upcoming Trump Presidency (he was an ardent supporter of Hillary Clinton). Here are a few salient points from this talk.
What makes America great: It is the system. It has thrived for decades and in my lifetime, the per-capita GDP of a person has gone up six-fold. Regardless of who the President is, it has checks and balances and things right themselves. |
How is America different now: A hundred years ago, if two adjacent farmers had respectively an IQ of 90 and 130, no matter how smartly they farmed, the difference in wealth creation was less than 10%. Today, if you have a high IQ and are willing to work hard, you can be tremendously successful, thanks to the knowledge economy. |
Will America’s Stock market be affected by a Trump Presidency? Absolutely not. Regardless of who’s the president, the Stock Market will do well. |
Will Trump impose a 35% tariff on imports from Mexico? If you do that, the other side will do the same. I seriously doubt NAFTA will be scrapped. |
State of the US Economy: It is slower than what people think. |
