‘Just Terrific Stuff!’ Fox’s Larry Kudlow Sings Trump’s Praises After Markets Surge 6% On Tariff Pause

By News Here - 12:07

Fox Business host Larry Kudlow sang his former boss’s praises on Wednesday following a 6% stock market rally on news that President Donald Trump paused tariffs on 75 countries for 90 days while slapping an additional levy on China.

Kudlow, a former Trump economic official, reacted to co-host Dagen McDowell reading off the gains following Trump’s announcement and added:

So he listened, and he’s getting advice from a lot of people, not going to name any names about how to play this card. And he’s got Bessent in charge of deals, and it’ll all take… This is just wonderful. This is Trump at his best!

McDowell then added some more context, “So 90-day pause and then the reciprocal tariffs go down to 10% for these 75 nations that have not retaliated against the United States but I wrote this down on my little folder that you said this this was weeks and weeks ago and I would bet you and you can tell me I’m crazy that POTUS and Scott Bessent like to watch the 10-year treasury and the 10 year rate, the yield. Yields are holding steady.”

“I wonder, given what happened with the 10-year yield and the 30-year, the long bond overnight, if that wasn’t at least some impetus to, again, this is a door opening. This is a way forward for the United States and our trading partners who we stand strong with,” she noted.

“This is good management of policy, this is good execution of policy. It shows his flexibility, it shows his common sense, he’s adapting to the reality, okay. Look, you had stock market vigilantes, you have bond market vigilantes saying with this tariff thing, it’s way too big, way too soon, way too far, okay? Yeah, he is right. I will back him on the crusade or the policy goal of stopping the unfair trading practices that have existed now for decades. He is correct. His idea of reciprocity, which should lead to freer trade and lower tariffs over time, is exactly correct. It’s just terrific stuff!” Kudlow crowed.

“That was up almost 6% I just want to point out,” added co-host Taylor Riggs.
