#TrumpVsPowell
The tension between Donald Trump and Jerome Powell is heating up again. As Trump eyes a potential return to the White House, speculation swirls around whether he’ll try to oust the Fed Chair if re-elected. Trump has long criticized Powell for not slashing interest rates more aggressively during his presidency, and now he’s doubling down. Meanwhile, Powell remains focused on keeping inflation in check, even if it means keeping rates higher for longer. This political-economic showdown could have major implications for markets, the dollar, and your wallet. Will the Fed stay independent under pressure? The stakes are rising.
