Trump, standing next to Son, stated that SoftBank's $100 billion investment would not only support job creation, aiming for a total of 100,000 positions, but also showcase 'monumental confidence in America's future.' He insists this initiative is vital for improving the economy during his upcoming second term and will focus on artificial intelligence and infrastructure.
While the $100 billion pledge is significant and aligned with Trump's broader economic promises, it draws parallels to a previous agreement in December 2016. Back then, Son had committed to spending $50 billion and creating 50,000 jobs, but the actual realization of those jobs remains uncertain, raising questions about the tangible outcomes of such large-scale investments by SoftBank.
