Trump said the decline in stock markets in December was just a “little glitch” and the US markets will be good when the trade deals kick in.
He told reporters at a Cabinet meeting that “we had a little glitch in the stock market last month.” And, “it’s going to go up once we settle trade issues, and once a couple of other things happen.” He repeated that “We need a little help from the Fed … but we’re going to be good. The trade deals are kicking in.”
Also, Trump repeated his upbeat message regarding trade talks with China and said they are “coming along very well, we’ll see what happens.”
