US President Donald Trump has called the tariffs in the dictionary as their favorite word. But when it comes to obsessions, the business investment needs to be closer.

By the past month, he said he was “practically committed” on his clock TR 12 trillion (£ 8.8 TN). “No one has seen numbers as we have,” he said, respecting the agenda of tariffs, tax cuts and uncontrollures.

If it is true, this figure is really surprising, and the total private investment will roughly three times the tn.

So, as Trump claims, is a sudden goal for a platform for the new golden economy era, or is it all theater?

First things first: It is too early to have clear data to evaluate Trump’s rights. The US government publishes business investment statistics every three months.

January to March, which reflects Trump’s tenure, shows a strong jump in business investment, although the analysts say, due to oblique data from the previous Boeing strike.

Other anecdotes and evidence of survey indicate that Trump affects the investment, more higher than they claim.

“We have no data at this time and for all the information we have in ourselves last year is for investment plans for investment plans,” says Economist Nick Bloom, a professor at the University of Stanford, says his work is seen by his work on the impact of uncertainty on business investment.

“My ESS hai business investment is slightly lower. Not bulky. Not so much … mainly uncertainty is high enough. It will pause it.”

Roche is a good example of a Swiss Pharmaceutical Institute, which announced a plan to invest 50 billion in the US in five years in April.

Some of the projects included in the amount are already at work.

Executives have warned that some of Trump’s ideas – specifically the proposal to review the price of Drug Shadi – can weaken its plans.

“The pharma industry needs to review their expenses, including investments,” the company said.

Trump usually suggests investment promises made by high -level organizations such as Apple and Hyundai.

White House is a Run In those publications, but early June, it placed the total new investments to approximately 3.3 tn – less than half of the amount quoted by Trump.

That guy is also inflamed.

Approximately one -third of the 62 investments on the list includes plans for at least partial work before Trump took office. For example:

  • Stellantis, who was on the list for the B 5 billion project to reopen the factory in Belvidere, Illinois, gave the promise in 2023.
  • Other commitments include materials that traditionally do not consider investments – like Apple’s B 500 Billion Expense PledgeIt includes taxes and salaries that are already paid to workers in the company.

The ‘well’ of the highlights ‘well’

In reality, according to the analysis of Goldman Sachs, the new investment caused by publications is close to 4 134 billion by mid -May.

That amount does not include supported investments of foreign governments, once researchers have failed to implement some projects or somehow the risk of Billion Billion Billion Billion Billion.

“Although not economically negligible, such an increase is less than the latest highlights,” he wrote.

When pressed on numbers, a White House spokesman Kush Desai pushed the concern that the rights of the administration were not fit for reality.

“The Trump administration is using a multi -faceted approach to increase investment to the United States … and does not refuse to pay off no meaning,” he said in a statement that it is clearly credited with their policies for Trump and their policies.

Trump invited the chief officials to the White House.

The BBC contacted more than two dozen organizations with investments in the White House list.

Many did not respond or mention the previous statements.

Others have accepted the current administration on some of their projects.

Encouragement

The exaggeration of politicians and companies is not unexpected.

But the Trump administration, which has radically intervened in the economy, has given rise to tariffs and other changes, which has given rise to the president’s praise for the president, says Martin Chorjempa, a senior fellow of the Peterson Institute of International Economics.

“The declaration organization is a way to get some current benefits. If the situation changes (spending pledges), without necessarily holding,” he says. “There is a strong incentive to provide companies as a large number of companies.”

It is impossible to say that Trump policies are not making a difference.

CE threats of tariff threats are “definitely accelerated” for CE -companies to plan greater production in the US, which is a major source of sector profit, says Pharma and Healthcare’s Global Lead Stephen Farelli.

However, they say there are limits on what threats can be achieved.

Pharma investments are ready to open over time – in some cases a decade – somehow ready for growth in a zone.

And they are from companies that sell brand Drugs – not cheap, common medicines dependent on Americans and are made in China and India.

Mr. Farelli has warned that investments in these sectors can be risk in the long run, keeping track of the government’s approach to tariffs, drug prices and scientific research.

Overall, many analysts have expected the growth of investment in the US this year due to the uncertainty of policy.

Washington University economist German Gutyrage says that it is okay for Trump to want to increase investment in the US, but believes that their emphasis on global competition will misrepresent the problem.

Their own work has found that the collapse of investment has led to the strengthening of the industry. Now some large organizations dominate the fields, there is less encouragement to invest.

Additionally, the types of investments that firms are doing are usually cheaper items such as software than machines and factories.

Tariffs, Professor Gutharez says, are unlikely to solve those problems.

“This is the way it is going on and the tools they are using are not the best way to achieve this goal. It really takes you more to get it.”
