Deutsche Bank CEO calls Bessent to disown Greenland note as “sell U.S. assets” talk spreads
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Deutsche Bank’s CEO disavowed an analyst’s note suggesting Europeans might sell U.S. assets over Trump’s planned Greenland tariffs. Trump has threatened a 10% tariff on several European countries’ goods from Feb. 1, rising to 25% if no Greenland deal is reached. Italy’s Treasury is backing Monte dei Paschi CEO Lovaglio.
