BlockBeats News, June 6: Over the past 24 hours, U.S. President Trump has made intensive remarks on topics including the economy, monetary policy, the Middle East situation, and artificial intelligence.
On the economic front, Trump stated that the U.S. May non-farm payrolls data was "very strong," suggesting that economic growth does not necessarily mean inflation, and the stock market should have risen instead of falling. At the same time, he reiterated his desire to see a rate cut, but said he would delegate the decision on whether to cut interest rates at the October meeting to the new Fed Chair, Wash.
Regarding the Middle East situation, Trump said he would quickly end military action against Iran to ease the pressure of rising energy and fertilizer prices. He also stated that although no agreement has been reached with Iran yet, Iran has no choice but to reach an agreement. In addition, Trump claimed that the U.S. has significantly destroyed Iran's missile and drone systems, and said that Iran's remaining missile inventory is about 21% to 22% of pre-war levels.
In the technology field, Trump revealed that the government is considering allowing the U.S. public to participate in top artificial intelligence companies through stock ownership, and stated that discussions have been held with companies on the concept, without disclosing specific details.
When talking about his previous public disputes with Musk, Trump said that the two have "become friends again."
Furthermore, the White House confirmed that Trump has pardoned former Republican Congressman Stephen Buyer. Buyer was sentenced to 22 months in prison for trading on insider information from the Sprint Communications $23 billion acquisition of a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom.
