During Trump's presidency in the United States, he publicly criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Powell multiple times, demanding that interest rates be lowered to stimulate economic growth. Trump believed that high interest rates hindered the development of the American economy and affected stock market performance. He even stated that Powell was a 'short-sighted' person. Although the Federal Reserve is supposed to operate independently, Trump's frequent pressure raised concerns in the market regarding the independence of the Federal Reserve. This series of actions sparked widespread controversy in the political and economic circles of the United States and influenced global judgments about the direction of Federal Reserve policy.
