šØ BREAKING: THE FED DRAWS A CLEAR LINE šØ
š„ RATE CUTS ARE NOT DECIDED BY TRUMP š„
In a statement already echoing across Wall Street and Washington, Kevin Hassett ā President Trumpās Federal Reserve Chair nominee ā delivered an unmistakable message š
š§ āInterest rate decisions belong to the Federal Reserve ā not the White House.ā
š„ Hassett didnāt hedge. He laid it out plainly:
š Monetary policy is set by the Federal Reserve Board
šļø Institutional independence remains non-negotiable
š« Political pressure ā even from a sitting president ā has no seat at the table
This comes just days after Donald Trump publicly suggested the Fed āshould listen to himā on rate decisions ā a remark that immediately stirred debate across global markets ā”
šš Why this matters:
šµ Markets depend on Fed credibility
š§ Long-term stability beats short-term political influence
š Global investors are watching the Fedās independence closely
š¦ The takeaway is crystal clear: š Monetary policy is not a campaign tool
š The Fed remains the sole gatekeeper of interest rates
ā³ With inflation, growth, and liquidity at a critical juncture, this tension between politics and policy could shape the next phase of the economic cycle.
š„ Authority. Independence. Credibility.
š The Fed isnāt blinking.
