Trump Expresses Concerns Over US Economy, Predicts Potential Crash
Former President of the United States, Donald Trump, has expressed concerns about the US economy, suggesting a potential crash in the next year during an interview on Lindell TV.
Trump emphasized his desire to avoid a situation reminiscent of Herbert Hoover’s presidency during the Great Depression.
In his critique of President Joe Biden’s economic policies, Trump described the economy as “fragile” and claimed it was relying on the previous administration’s momentum.

However, a robust December jobs report countered this narrative, surpassing expectations and highlighting a year of resilience in the labor market.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen defended the economy’s strength, noting the disproven pessimism and emphasizing the current strong labor market in a Friday interview with CNN.
Despite challenges such as regional banking issues and geopolitical tensions, the US stock market performed well in the previous year, with the S&P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq registering significant gains.
While recession concerns persist on Wall Street, historical data suggests that the S&P 500 tends to perform positively during the fourth year of presidential terms, even amid potential market volatility tied to elections and geopolitical events.
