Kevin O'Leary stresses impact of riots on small businesses
@kevinolearytv: O'Leary on riots impact
Kevin O'Leary, the well-known entrepreneur and investor, recently highlighted the significant economic impact of ongoing riots on small businesses through a tweet.
O'Leary emphasized that the unrest has led to the shutdown of essential local enterprises such as grocery stores and dry cleaners, which rely heavily on foot traffic for their operations. Even for businesses that have avoided direct vandalism or window damage, the absence of customers has resulted in severe financial setbacks.
This statement from O'Leary comes as urban areas, already struggling with the economic recovery post-pandemic, face additional hurdles. His words point toward a broader economic issue, raising concerns about how prolonged disturbances could stunt local economic growth and affect community livelihoods over time.

O'Leary's assessment of small business vulnerability amid civic unrest aligns with his ongoing commentary on the resilience of the broader economy. His prior guidance on wealth-building for younger generations, including the strategy to allocate 15% in the S&P 500, speaks to the importance of long-term financial planning in uncertain times. Additionally, his defense of the Employee Retention Credit—citing IRS data as evidence—highlights his continued focus on safeguarding both businesses and investors from external pressures.
