Golden Finance reported that Amazon (AMZN.O) founder Jeff Bezos expressed optimism about U.S. President-elect Trump at an event on Wednesday, hoping that the incoming government would have a more friendly regulatory environment. "I'm actually very optimistic this time," Bezos said. "He seems very keen on reducing regulations. If I can help, I will help him." Bezos and Trump have not had a harmonious relationship in the past. But before this year's election, Bezos changed his tone when talking about Trump and congratulated him immediately after the election. Bezos said on Wednesday that Trump seemed calmer, more confident and more stable than during his first term. "You've probably grown over the past eight years. So has he." (Golden Ten)
