A quarter after Donald Trump’s second term and managers simply cannot stop saying his name.
The number of profits in which CEOs said “Donald Trump” or “Trump” in the last 30 days has sped the same time, according to the review of profit reversals by Business Insider.
Trump’s name was said in 88 profit calls in the last 30 days, compared to only five times in the same period of the previous year.
Gary Friedman, CEO of the Hardware Rood Goods Store Restoration Hardware, mentioned Trump’s name four times in the company’s prize discussion on April 2.
The conversation around Trump was largely powered by the tariffs he was raised on goods that were imported into the country. For household goods such as RH, these tariffs sent share prices downhill. “Oh SH – T,” said Friedman when he heard that the company of the company had fallen by Trump by 26% in view of the comprehensive “liberation day”, which imposed on 180 countries.
Cases in which the CEOs have selected the word tumbles have exploded since last year. The CEOs have triggered tariffs at 569 profit calls in the last 30 days, compared to only 58 cases last year.
On Thursday, the win for the first quarter of the year, Marc Bitzer, mentioned 50 times in whirlpool, CEO Bitzer. Bitzer presented them as positive news for the company.
“Finally, the tariffs will help create a flat playing field for whirlpool,” he said on the call.
Several other companies repeated word tariffs like a mantra during this week. The play and toy company Hasbro referred the tariffs 35 times on Thursday. Consumer Goods Company Procter & Gamble mentioned her 26 times.
Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan, mentioned five times on April 11th on the company’s profit call. Dimon, who said the People about the tariffs to “get over” in January, swung in his last letter to the shareholders this month, and found that tariffs “slow down”.
During the company’s profit, he continued his January comments. “I wish I hadn’t said it. I especially referred tariffs in connection with the protection of national security,” he said. Then he admitted that “you may need tariffs to fix some of the problems related to national security.”
