Billionaire John Paulson Vows to Exit Markets if Kamala Harris Wins Election

Paulson criticizes Harris' proposed tax policies, predicting market instability and recession if implemented.

  • John Paulson, a prominent Trump supporter and hedge fund billionaire, announced he would pull his investments from the market if Kamala Harris wins the presidency.
  • Paulson specifically criticized Harris' proposal for a 25% tax on unrealized gains, predicting it would lead to mass asset selling and a quick recession.
  • He expressed concerns over Harris' plans to raise the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28% and the capital gains rate from 20% to 28%.
  • Paulson's remarks have highlighted a broader anxiety among some investors about the potential economic impact of Harris' policies.
  • While Paulson warns of market instability, other analysts, including those at Goldman Sachs, suggest that Harris' policies could provide a bigger economic boost compared to Trump's.
