#特朗普施压鲍威尔 Attacks the Federal Reserve: Demands Immediate Rate Cut of 2.5%! Market Speculation Intensifies
Former President Trump recently "attacked" the Federal Reserve again, severely criticizing Fed Chairman Powell's monetary policy in public. Trump claimed: "The current high-interest rate policy is strangling the economic recovery, and we must take action immediately to cut rates by at least 2.5 percentage points!"
The former president's fierce remarks are primarily based on three assertions:
High interest rates seriously suppress economic growth The cost of government debt continues to rise The European Central Bank has cut rates multiple times, while the Fed has been slow to act
"Powell's performance is disappointing," Trump emphasized, "If it were up to me, I would definitely take more aggressive measures to stimulate the economy."
However, the Federal Reserve seems unmoved by this. According to insider information, the Fed's decision-making body believes:
Inflation pressures have not been completely eliminated The job market remains relatively stable More data support is needed before policy adjustments can be made
It is worth noting that there are significant divisions within the Fed:
• 7 officials insist that there should be no rate cut this year
• 10 officials support at least two rate cuts
This division reflects the uncertainty in the direction of monetary policy.
In the market, investors generally expect:
✓ Over 50% probability of a rate cut in September
✓ Concerns that the Fed may maintain a hawkish stance
✓ Focus on inflation, employment, and global economic trends
Fed officials have reiterated several times: "Our decisions are entirely based on economic data and will not be influenced by any political pressure." This statement suggests that future policy adjustments will strictly depend on the actual performance of economic indicators.
Analysts point out that this debate highlights the complex situation facing monetary policy:
→ The game between political pressure and economic reality
→ The balance between short-term stimulus and long-term stability
→ The interaction between domestic demand and the global environment
