As concerns in the markets escalate due to President Donald Trump's erratic approach to economic policies, traders are attempting to anticipate what the 'Federal Reserve' might do if the markets lose their balance and require immediate intervention to restore stability.
This concern has sparked weeks of volatile trading and sharp declines in the prices of a wide range of securities, resulting from the president's conflicting statements regarding tariffs, which are widely believed to lead to rising inflation and a slowdown in growth and employment. The pace of volatility has increased recently following Trump's public criticisms of the 'Federal Reserve' for not lowering interest rates since he returned to power in January, and his hinting at the possibility of dismissing 'Federal Reserve' Chair Jerome Powell, according to 'Reuters'.
