John Paulson, a supporter of Donald Trump, said there could be a collapse in the financial markets if Kamala Harris' proposed tax plans become a reality.

Hedge fund billionaire John Paulson, who made a name for himself by betting against the housing market during the financial crisis and who is today a prominent supporter of former President Donald Trump, said there could be a collapse in the financial markets and a recession if Vice President Kamala Harris' proposed tax plans become a reality.

Meanwhile, Harris previously endorsed the tax increases proposed by Biden that include a 25% tax on unrealized gains for households worth at least $100 million,, have said she has no interest in taxing unrealized gains and there are doubts if any such plan could make it through Congress. "If the Biden-Harris team does come in, and they were to implement what's on their platform, which is a tax on unrealized gain, that's going to cause massive selling of homes, of stocks, of companies, of art and that could … put us immediately into a recession, so hopefully that if they are elected, they won't pursue that," he said.

There is also some concern that Trump's economic plans would not be as market-friendly as Paulson believes with proposed tariffs reigniting some inflation and more tax cuts expanding the budget deficit.talked about as Treasury secretary in a second administration, said in the CNBC interview he does not believe that tariffs would be inflationary if targeted correctly. The investor also said the lower taxes would spark economic gains that help raise revenues and close the deficit gap.
