President Donald Trump will be hosting the CEOs of J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs and others tonight at the White House. CNBC's Eamon Javers joins 'Squawk on the Street' with the latest news from DC.

Washington

The White House is hosting a dinner for prominent Wall Street leaders, with expected attendees including the CEOs of J.P. Morgan, Nasdaq, Blackstone, Morgan Stanley, Blackrock, and Goldman Sachs. The administration has not provided specific details about the agenda for the meeting, but the event occurs as the president discusses potential tariff reductions to address affordability for Americans.

Some media coverage will be permitted during the dinner, allowing the public to observe portions of the event and remarks from the president. The gathering offers Wall Street executives an opportunity for direct dialogue with the administration on current economic issues, including tariffs and future policy directions.

White House to host Wall Street heads

Let's turn to the White House as well, where the president, as Sarah said, will expect it to host some high-profile Wall Street leaders for dinner tonight. For that, we'll turn to Eamon Javers. Good morning, Eamon. EAMON JAVERS, PBS NEWSHOUR CORRESPONDENT, THE WHITE HOUSE, INC.: Yes, good morning to you, Carl. We are expecting those heavy hitters here at the White House, but the White House is not really offering any detail on this dinner tonight, other than that they are hosting it with financial leaders from across the economy. No explanation from the White House sort of why they're doing this now, what particularly is on the agenda. Take a look at this list of some of the heavy hitters that we do expect reportedly to be there, including the CEOs of J.P. Morgan, the Nasdaq, Blackstone, Morgan Stanley, Blackrock, and Goldman Sachs. All of those leaders are expected to be here tonight. And this dinner comes at a time when the president is increasingly thinking about the issue of affordability, telling FOX News in an interview yesterday that he is prepared to lower some some tariffs in order to make some products more affordable for Americans. Here's what he said. DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, WE'RE GOING TO LOWER SOME TARIFFS. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SOME COFFEE COME IN. WE'RE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF ALL THIS STUFF VERY QUICKLY, VERY EASILY. IT'S SURGICAL. IT'S BEAUTIFUL TO WATCH. BUT OUR COSTS ARE WAY LOWER. Now, we do expect some cameras to be allowed into this dinner tonight with the Wall Street executives guys, so at least some portion of this will be visible to the public. We'll see who's there, and we'll see what the president has to say to them. Back over to you. I'm just wondering what, you know, topics of conversation. It's interesting, the banks are really rallying today, and I wonder if it has something to do with this, the FaceTime just getting from the president. Overall, banks have been, I would think, pretty happy with the administration's policy, especially when deregulation, much of it does center on the treasury secretary and on banking. Yeah, I mean, look, things have been good for Wall Street recently, and I know that the Wall Street CEOs value the FaceTime with the president. A lot of them will tell you, you know, behind the scenes, the key is to get into the Oval Office with the president, to talk to him one-on-one about any issues that are coming up. So this is a perfect opportunity for folks on the street to come here to the White House and, you know, sort of have that one-on-one time with the president to raise any issues that they see in the economy going forward, talk a little bit about tariffs and the impact thereof, and get a sense from the administration about where things are going next. Okay, Eamon. Thank you. Eamon Javers. Goldman Sachs up more than 3 percent.
