CFOs to POTUS: No to Tweets, Yes to H1-Bs

Mar 16, 2017, 6:30 PM

The president's off-the-cuff Twitter posts aren't going over well with U.S. CFOs, who cite "the fluctuations and uncertainty" from the 140-character expressions, according to a new Duke University/CFO Global Business Outlook survey of nearly 900 senior finance executives. Two-thirds say he should stop using Twitter, but an even higher percentage - 85 percent - oppose his plans to reduce H1-B visas for highly skilled workers. The survey also found that a majority of CFOs believe eliminating the debt interest deduction would be bad for the U.S. economy.
