US Senate Passes Trump's $4 Trillion Tax Cut Bill -- July 1, 2025

Locator: 48634TAXES.

Now to the US House.

I don't know if the "Tax Cut Bill" amounts to $4 trillion or not, but we can start there.  I think everyone agrees the deficit will increase about that much, or at least in the ballpark.

Market after that news was announced:

  • NASDAQ continued with its trend for the day. Down 200 points.
  • Dow continued with its trend for the day, but surged. Up almost 500 points.

US market:

  • huge growth in international equities; huge
  • the spread between US equities and international equities the largest spread in 24 years
  • a really, really weak dollar but the equity market is a lot more than just a weak dollar
