Trump Denies Considering Dimon, Fink for Treasury

Donald Trump, the Republican U.S. presidential candidate, has denied considering JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon or BlackRock CEO Larry Fink for the Treasury Secretary position, stating on Truth Social that he never discussed or thought of either individual for the role. This denial contradicts a Bloomberg report suggesting Trump had expressed openness to Dimon as a candidate. Trump's statement comes amid ongoing speculation regarding potential cabinet members should he win the presidential election. Instead, attention has shifted to other figures like hedge fund manager John Paulson and investor Scott Bessent, who have reportedly caught Trump's eye for the Treasury role due to their Wall Street experience. The denial has sparked discussions about Trump's cabinet preferences and the influence of financial experts in his administration. Notably, Trump has previously labeled Dimon as a 'globalist,' adding complexity to the narrative surrounding his potential selections.
