Becerra revealed that President Trump is broadly searching for candidates to fill the permanent vacancy on the Federal Reserve Board that will arise in January next year, and he has a very open attitude. He disclosed that the President has even considered nominating former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen. "This is not an ideological issue, but rather an economic one—what is in the best interest of the American people, what is most beneficial for economic development," Becerra emphasized.

How many years does it take to become a successful trader? Those who figure it out in four to five years are the chosen ones! Experience from predecessors: To pass the knowledge barrier, it takes until the 2nd year; to pass the technical barrier, it takes until the 4th year; to pass the trading system barrier, it takes until the 6th year; the ultimate barrier: the human nature barrier takes 10 years. Then, it takes another 1-2 years to wait for your own market opportunities. However, most people may exit within one or two years because their time and money are insufficient to last that long. $BIO $FTT
