Donald Trump delivered a campaign speech in Iowa listing economic outcomes he credited to his administration, citing market and trade indicators.

Summary of claims

He asserted multiple large-scale achievements including record market levels, aggregate savings growth, and a material reduction in the trade deficit.

Key points cited by Trump

• He said, 52 historical highs were reached in equity markets under his watch, framing that as a primary success.
• He stated American household savings rose by $9 trillion, presenting that as evidence of improved financial positions for citizens.
• He claimed the administration attracted $18 trillion in investments over a year, contrasting that with the prior administration’s numbers.
• He contrasted his figures with Joe Biden’s performance, saying Biden did not reach $1 trillion in comparable measures over four years.
• He asserted a reduction of the trade deficit by 77%, calling that decrease a major policy accomplishment.
• He said tariff policy generated ‘‘hundreds of billions of dollars’’ in revenue, and characterised tariffs as converting prior losses into gains.

Comments on monetary policy and the dollar

Trump criticised the current Federal Reserve leadership and previewed plans to nominate a new chair, promising that interest rates would fall after the appointment.

«We call him 'Brake Jerome'.»

Before the Iowa speech he commented on the dollar's behaviour, using a familiar metaphor to describe exchange-rate volatility.

«It can rise and fall like a yo-yo.»

Personal and audience remarks

He said his policies made many people wealthier and recounted emotional reactions from supporters in Iowa who thanked him for national recovery efforts.

«I made many people rich, even those I did not like.»
