Trump’s Increased Intervention in Monetary Policy Raises Concerns Over Federal Reserve Credibility

According to a report by Jinse Finance, market analysis indicates that Trump's increased intervention in monetary policy has raised concerns about the credibility of the Federal Reserve. Regardless of who ultimately takes over, they may be labeled as someone who only carries out Trump's rate-cutting directives, undermining the Fed's traditional image of being "apolitical." Reports suggest that in order to expand his influence in the short term, Trump is considering appointing a "shadow chair" before the current chair Powell steps down next year, to pressure the Fed into cutting interest rates.
