On today’s show, shares in automakers rise after President Trump said he is exploring temporary tariff exemptions to give auto companies more time to set up US manufacturing. However, his administration presses forward with trade probes on pharmaceutical and semiconductor imports – a precursor to potential levies. In an exclusive interview with Bloomberg, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent dismisses speculation that foreign governments are selling off US debt following the recent rout in treasuries.
