President-elect Donald Trump has secured a $100 billion investment from SoftBank Group, which will create 100,000 jobs in artificial intelligence and related fields. The announcement will be made with SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son at Mar-a-Lago. This investment follows Trump's promise to expedite approvals for companies investing over $1 billion in the U.S. He aims to address economic concerns, particularly rising food prices, which have troubled voters. The deal marks a significant development in Trump's economic strategy as he prepares for his upcoming term. It contrasts with previous efforts by the Biden administration to lower household costs through various measures.
