Trump vs. Powell: The Pressure Cooker is On 🔥
Donald Trump is turning up the heat on Fed Chair Jerome Powell — criticizing him relentlessly for holding back on rate cuts and even suggesting he could be fired.
But here’s the truth: Powell’s removal is highly unlikely.
Why? Because firing the Fed Chair would shake the very foundation of Federal Reserve independence — a move that could trigger panic in global markets and weaken trust in the U.S. dollar, the bedrock of global finance.
The Fed’s credibility is what keeps the USD dominant. Undermining that isn’t just risky — it’s dangerous.
That leaves us with two likely outcomes:
Powell resigns under pressure
Powell eventually gives in and cuts rates
Either way, it could spark a strong upside for the markets — and our portfolios. 💹
Eyes on the Fed. This is far from over.
