WASHINGTON, D.C. – May 2, 2025 – Tim Phillips, Director of Government Affairs and Global Strategies at Nestpoint, joined Newsmax to weigh in on President Trump’s “First 100 Days” economic agenda. During the segment, Phillips provided expert analysis on the administration’s efforts to finalize multiple international trade agreements and attract new capital inflows into the United States.

Phillips highlighted the critical importance of accelerating trade negotiations, noting that the U.S.–Mexico agreement required over 900 days from negotiation to enactment and arguing that speeding up forthcoming deals would bolster investor confidence across industries. He pointed out that inflation has cooled to 2.4%, the lowest since fall 2024, while corporate commitments from leaders such as Nvidia and Johnson & Johnson already signal billions in fresh investment—underscoring a positive trajectory for the U.S. economy.

Addressing recent market volatility tied to tariff announcements, Phillips observed that energy prices have stabilized near $60 per barrel but cautioned that upcoming policy actions—ranging from new trade pacts to potential extensions of Trump-era tax cuts—stand to propel growth into the summer and fall. His insights reflect Nestpoint’s deep bench in government relations and its commitment to guiding clients through complex policy environments with precision and foresight.
