Bessent says US tariff revenues to rise 'substantially,' focus on reducing debt
By Andrea Shalal WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he expects a big jump in revenues from sweeping tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump, and said the money would be used first to start paying down the federal debt, not to give rebate checks to Americans. Bessent, speaking in an interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box," said he expected to substantially revise upward his earlier estimate of $300 billion in revenues from the tariffs, but declined to be more specific. Bessent said he had not spoken with Trump about the idea of using funds from the tariffs to create a dividend for Americans, but stressed that both of them were "laser-focused" on paying down the debt. "I've been saying that tariff revenue could be $300 billion this year. I'm going to have to revise that up substantially," Bessent said. "We're going to bring down the deficit to GDP. We'll start paying down the debt, and then at that point that can be used as an offset to the American people." The U.S. economy could return to the "good, low-inflationary growth" of the 1990s, Bessent said, but he blamed higher interest rates for problems plaguing some pockets of the economy, singling out housing and lower-income households with high credit card debt. A cut in the Federal Reserve's key interest rate - which Trump has continually pressed for - could help facilitate a boom or pickup in home building, which would help keep prices down in one to two years, he said. The U.S. Census Bureau on Tuesday reported a small increase in groundbreaking for single-family homes and permits for future construction in July, even as high mortgage rates and economic uncertainty continued to hamper home purchases. Trump's wide-ranging import tariffs have kept the Federal Reserve from lowering interest rates this year, with most central bank policymakers wary of easing borrowing costs until they have more confidence the levies will not rekindle inflation, which has yet to return to the Fed's 2% target. Recent indications of softening in the job market, however, have largely convinced investors that the Fed will cut rates by a quarter of a percentage point when it meets in mid-September. That expectation has helped bring down mortgage rates in recent weeks. Bessent has previously said a 50-basis-point cut in rates was warranted.

US stocks tend to gain around Fed's Jackson Hole summer conference, analysis shows
By Lewis Krauskopf NEW YORK (Reuters) -U.S. stocks have tended to fare well around the Federal Reserve's Jackson Hole gathering in August, according to a historical analysis from DataTrek Research, although the market has seen sizable moves in both directions in recent years. The Fed's annual Wyoming research conference is set for Thursday through Saturday, and Chair Jerome Powell's speech on Friday is expected to be the main event for markets. DataTrek looked at the benchmark S&P 500 in the five trading days before and after the Fed chair's speech since 2010. The index gained an average of 0.9% over the period, with the bulk after the speech. "This suggests that markets get incremental clarity from the chair's speech, which in turn boosts equity valuations," Nicholas Colas, DataTrek's co-founder, said in a research note. This year, the S&P 500 has slipped in the lead-up to the speech so far, Colas said in the note published early Tuesday. "This goes against the usual pattern, so we would not be surprised to see the index rally modestly through Thursday," he said. One notable exception to the trend was in 2022, when the index slumped 7.4% in the 10-day period. That year at Jackson Hole, Powell warned of slower growth as the Fed fought high inflation. The S&P 500 fell over 19% for the full year 2022 as the Fed raised interest rates. In 2023, the index gained 3.3% in the studied period. DataTrek noted the S&P 500 fell in 2013 and 2015 when Fed chairs Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen did not attend the symposium. This year, investors are eager to see if Powell reinforces expectations of a central bank interest rate cut at its September 16-17 meeting. Recent weak labor market data bolstered those expectations. Fed Fund futures on Tuesday were pricing in an 84% chance of such a move, according to LSEG data.

USDA will heighten scrutiny for solar and wind projects on farms, but some may continue
By Leah Douglas and Nichola Groom WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Department of Agriculture said on Tuesday it will heighten scrutiny of some solar and wind projects but stopped short of ending all agency support for clean energy projects on U.S. farms, according to a press release. The release came a day after Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced on X that her agency would no longer fund wind and solar on productive farmland. Rather, the agency said it will move away from funding larger renewable energy facilities, the Tuesday release said. Wind and solar projects will not be eligible for the agency's Rural Development Business and Industry Guaranteed Loan Program, the USDA said, and ground-mounted solar systems over 50 kilowatts and those that cannot document historical energy usage will not qualify for the Rural Energy for America Program Guaranteed Loan Program, according to the release. "USDA will ensure that American farmers, ranchers and producers utilizing wind and solar energy sources will install units that are right-sized for their facilities," the release said. The agency will also not allow the use of solar panels "manufactured by foreign adversaries" in USDA-funded projects, the release said. The USDA did not immediately respond to questions about whether smaller-scale projects are still eligible for agency support. Thomas Clark, director of marketing and communications for solar installation company Northstone Solar in Whitefish, Montana, said potential clients in his region had already been impacted by the USDA's pullback in project funding. "If you are trying to do a ground mount system on farmland, which a couple years ago would not have been an issue, now they don't want that to happen," Clark said. "And that just seems like you're sticking it to farmers that are trying to find ways to diversify their revenue and be able to stay in business." Rollins said in the release that prime farmland has been displaced by solar farms and the new investment guardrails are meant to keep farmland affordable. Yet data from the USDA shows that a very small amount of rural land is used for solar and wind projects and that most continues in agricultural production even after the projects are installed.
