#noticiascripto 🚨President Trump is pressuring Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, and investors are betting on who could replace him.
Recently, something that was only discussed by political experts is now front-page news. Administration officials have blamed Powell for spending too much on the renovation of the Fed building, and reports say that Trump once planned to fire him but then backed down. At the same time, other Fed governors have urged Powell to cut interest rates sooner.
Firing Powell before his term ends in 2026 would break a longstanding rule. Investors fear this would make the Fed look like a political tool rather than an independent bank. That could shake the markets, increase loan rates for businesses and individuals, and weaken confidence in U.S. monetary policy.
Despite the uncertainty, trading platforms have set odds on potential successors.
