Fundstart’s Tom Lee has urged Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to expedite trade deals for a positive “policy shock” to the stock markets.
What Happened: Lee reshared an X post by Charles Gasparino and said, “White House needs to put points on the board.”
As explained by Gasparino, “putting points on the board” refers to a saying by salesmen when they “hit a rough spot” and need to do something about it quickly.
According to Lee and Gasparino, the market has been telling the same to Bessent, Lutnick, and the entire Trump trade negotiation team.
“They got to cut some deals and let the world know, and they have to do so soon because this could get even uglier,” Gasparino’s post added.
