Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –
“This tax bill is unleashing [an] unbelievable amount of power in the economy [and] power in our individual entrepreneurs,” Charles Schwab Corp. founder and Chairman Charles Schwab told FOX Business’ Maria Bartiromo today. “I think we just have to put on our hat and be ready to fly away here. This is going to be an incredible period the next two or three years.”
Charles Schwab is one of the hundreds of companies that passed on tax cut savings to employees with a $1,000 bonus. He is also pointing to expansion they will be doing this year, tied to tax and regulatory relief.
American workers have already seen an 8% boost this year, Schwab said, as he does the math with Bartiromo. He expects more people to return to the workforce.
On the corporate side, Schwab stated that company profits are “substantially higher than last year” and predicted upwards of 4% economic growth next year.
“We have all this new influx of money in the private sector … Just hang onto your hat,” he said.
