Hassett's Statement: Trump Can Freely Express Opinions on Federal Reserve Policy

According to Odaily Planet Daily, Hassett, the director of the National Economic Council at the White House, recently expressed his views on the relationship between the President and the Federal Reserve, clearly stating that Trump can freely express opinions on Federal Reserve policy.

This statement is made in a special context, as Hassett is currently a popular candidate for the position of Federal Reserve Chair, and his related remarks have garnered significant market attention. It is worth noting that Hassett has previously mentioned that Federal Reserve decision-making should maintain independence, emphasizing that the President's opinions do not carry voting weight and only hold reference value when they are reasonable and based on data. This clear affirmation of Trump's freedom to express opinions continues the recognition of the executive branch's right to express and once again sparks market discussions on the boundaries between "Federal Reserve independence" and "political influence."

In fact, Trump has long been highly concerned about Federal Reserve policy, publicly criticizing former Federal Reserve Chair Powell for slow rate cuts and continuously advocating for more aggressive easing policies. With the announcement of the Federal Reserve Chair candidate set for next year, Hassett's series of statements not only affect market predictions about the future direction of monetary policy but also make the relationship between "politics and central bank decision-making" one of the core topics in the current financial field. #特朗普概念币
