J.P. Morgan's boss has warned the U.S. economy is facing considerable turbulence.
00:06
Trump's senior advisor says the president wants 90 deals in 90 days.
00:13
How realistic is this?
00:15
This is not terribly realistic.
00:17
And I see what Trump is doing.
00:18
He's trying a sort of divide and rule approach.
00:21
You know, he doesn't like the EU because the EU is big, has materiality.
00:25
So he wants to negotiate country by country by country, which is obviously very time consuming.
00:32
So people will be rushed to come to some sort of an agreement.
00:37
So you may get some agreements, but this is really an uphill battle.
00:43
And again, it's bad in terms of stability.
00:48
It's bad in terms of how the U.S. is viewed.
00:51
You know, it undermines, it totally undermines the rules-based trading system that was created
00:58
essentially after the Second World War by the United States and has served the United States well.
01:05
So this is in terms of long-term standing for the U.S. not good news.
