Citadel CEO Ken Griffin told Semafor Wednesday that there are ‘no great opportunities’ in today’s rattled markets.

Donald Trump is moving too fast, alienating allies, making Americans poorer, and tarnishing the sterling reputation of US assets, Citadel CEO and founder Ken Griffin said Wednesday.

Though the president may have identified real problems, his methods to solve them don’t appear to be working, and are unlikely to revive American manufacturing, Griffin told Semafor’s Gina Chon at the World Economy Summit in Washington, DC.

Previously, Griffin said, “no brand compared” to US Treasurys, the strength of the US dollar, or the nation’s creditworthiness. But Trump’s tactics have “eroded” that reputation.

      Right but when he’s dead it will go to charity and hopefully to far better use than giving it to the US government to waste on interest payments and military spending.

        Yeah or he could just not extract it from his employees and let the economy distribute it around, or give it to charity NOW, I mean even if he gave billions it wouldn’t change his life one bit, except he’d lose power, and that’s all these psychos care about.
