Japs already hold $1.17 Trillion in US securities so this might cover regular annual fluctuation of $100 Billion and make a neat and completely irrelevant press release.

It rose to just short of $2 Trillion during Biden's tenure, It has been fairly similar magnitude for years. It is reflective of the proportion on International trade in the Japanese economy but shouldn't be read as either good or bad on politicians of any stripe in either nation.

The same guy made a similar announcement back in 2016.

Sprint and internet provider OneWeb may have already planned to create a combined 8,000 jobs in the U.S., but Sprint’s parent and OneWeb investor Softbank is happy to give President-elect Donald Trump all the credit as it eyes a merger with T-Mobile.

According to a report in TechCrunch, Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son has pledged to create 50,000 jobs and invest $50 billion in the U.S. through its $100 billion technology fund that Softbank created in October with Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, the Public Investment Fund. The jobs Sprint and OneWeb are committing to make are part of the 50,000 previously announced, although that hasn’t stopped Trump from taking credit.

Softbank’s willingness to let Trump take credit for the new jobs may be more to do with Softbank CEO Son wanting an easy go at it in merging Sprint with T-Mobile than anything else. After all, Softbank has seen regulators repeatedly derail previous attempts to merger Sprint and T-Mobile.

Softbank Lets Trump Take Job Creation Credit
