The U.S. will overcome its debt through growth, not through paying off the debt, hedge ⁠fund manager Bill Ackman said at ​the UBS Asia Wealth Forum conference on Monday.

"We overcome our indebtedness ⁠through growth. It's not going to be through paying ⁠down ​debt," ⁠Ackman said at the conference in Singapore when asked if he's worried about ⁠U.S. ​debt.
