“Trump has the right to express his views on monetary policy, but his continued bashing of the Fed is undermining confidence.”

Yeah maybe not a wise move. A few well advertised-in-advance 1/4 point increases didn’t crash the market. There are concerns about the global economy next year and uncertainties on tariffs/trade wars.

If you recall Trump claimed credit for the Stock Market rally after he became President. Definitely a lot of truth to that claim. However by publicly connecting himself to the Stock Market results he also set himself up for the blame on future crashes. Can’t have it both ways.

Trump needs to fire the idiot that appointed this Fed chair.
