Trump warns: ‘No rate cut? That’s the apocalypse’
During a high-profile speech, Donald Trump shared his thoughts on the Fed’s monetary policy, once again putting pressure on Jerome Powell. Here’s what shook investors:
• He emphasized Powell “must” reduce rates — or else.
• Promised a balanced trade agreement with China, dismissing extreme tariffs.
• Claimed support for China and called current relations “very civil.”
• Criticized Europe for “trying to use us.”
• Praised the stock market’s rise, attributing it to his policies.
It seems Trump is walking a tightrope between aggressive rhetoric and diplomatic maneuvering, while markets remain on edge.
