President-elect Donald Trump told CNBC’s Jim Cramer on Thursday the stock market is “going to see a lot of good days ahead.” Jim interviewed Trump on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange moments after the president-elect rang the opening bell. In their wide-ranging discussion, Trump said the performance of the stock market is “very important” to him. He also talked about lowering corporate taxes further, Elon Musk and other billionaire tech CEOs he wants to hear ideas from, and the importance of cryptocurrencies and artificial intelligence to the success of America on the world stage. Here are seven key moments from Jim’s Trump interview: Jim : What would you say to the American investor? Trump : “I think you are going to see a lot of good days ahead. I lot of incentives are going to be given. .. We have to conclude a couple of wars that are going on — a lot of bad things are going on. But we’ll get them done.” Jim : Is the market, the Dow, even the Nasdaq, a key barometer? Trump : “The stock market, all of it together, is very important.” Jim : Corporate taxes? Trump : “We are going to do things that really haven’t been done before. We’re going to cut taxes still further. … You pay 21% if you don’t build here. If you do, we’re going to try and get it to 15%, but you have to build your product, make your product in the USA.” Jim : Big tech? Trump : ″[ Meta CEO] Mark Zuckerberg’s been over to see me, and I can tell you, [ Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon [Musk ] is another and [ Amazon founder] Jeff Bezos is coming up next week, and I want to get ideas from them.” Jim : How do you view cryptocurrencies? Trump : “We’re going to do something great with crypto because we don’t want China, or anybody else … but others are embracing it, and we want to be ahead. Jim : You say you want to make the U.S. the king of artificial intelligence? Trump : “We are going to be ahead of AI. Way ahead of AI. We have to produce tremendous amounts of electricity. We need more than twice than we already have.” Jim : Should investors buy more stock? Trump : “I don’t want to get into a situation where they do and we have a dip or something, because that can always happen. [You, Jim Cramer,] know that better than anybody in the world. I think you are the leading authority on going up and going down.” Editor’s note: Jim’s questions were paraphrased. Trump’s answers are direct quotes.
