Trump Tariffs Have Put 'America Last' For Investors, Peter Schiff Warns Of A Financial Crisis Worse Than 2008

Economist Peter Schiff warned that Donald Trump's America First policy may be weakening U.S. investment appeal, as foreign capital retreats from American assets. Schiff said in a post on X that the U.S. once benefited from inflows tied to global trade surpluses, but that dynamic is reversing amid rising tariffs and a weakening dollar. He also flagged a potential drop in foreign demand for U.S. bonds, which could hike interest rates and deepen losses. With rising costs, falling asset prices, and growing deficits, Schiff warned of a severe recession and possible fiscal crisis if the Fed must backstop both Treasuries and federal debt.
