BlockBeats News: On April 6th, Forbes recently contacted 50 top Wall Street leaders, including billionaire investors, major institutional asset management firms, and the largest wealth advisors in the United States, to understand their level of support for President Trump's economic strategy since taking office. These 50 respondents were selected due to their significant influence. Among these heavyweight figures on Wall Street - more than half of whom supported Trump's economic policies when he returned to the White House in January -72% said the Trump team's economic plan was ineffective, and 66% did not support his economic policies. More than one-third of those who supported Trump a few weeks ago no longer support his economic policies, with the majority (54%) stating that Trump has failed to implement his plans. Forbes also surveyed these Wall Street tycoons on specific aspects of Trump's economic policies, asking them to rate them on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most favorable score. Their ratings are mostly very poor. On the issue of tariffs, Trump's rating was 1.86 out of 5, with 27 respondents giving the lowest rating. In terms of the stock market, his rating is equally poor, at 1.96 points (25 respondents gave him 1 out of 5), and the executive order against the law firm is almost equally bad, at 2.10 points - a direct attack on the rule of law that the free enterprise system in the United States relies on. The ratings for cryptocurrency (2.0 points) and inflation (2.16 points) are also disappointing.
