He's the one who appointed Powell in the first place.

the trade pact that he himself had negotiated with Canada and Mexico

So much about what the fed does is incredibly careful, data-driven, cautious, deliberate, measured. Quarter-point moves communicated months in advance....

I can see donnie ranting one day about interest rates and the fed toady slams it all the way down to zero the same day,

The next day adjusting after the market goes bananas.

If you think the markets went nuts over tariffs, you ain't seen nothin' yet!

Remember that 45 originally appointed Powell during his first term to replace Yellen, whose term was to end in 2018. Yellen had started raising interest rates during the latter part of Obama's term and continued during the first year of 45's term. When Powell took over, he continued the hikes until 45 stated screaming and the Fed halted the rises. They left the rate steady initially, and then started slowly dropping them until the pandemic crashed the economy, and that is when the rates went to near 0 again almost instantly.

But with a toady at the fed, he'll be able to -- and will -- whipsaw the markets on a whim.

Next parade will coincide with a massive rate cut so he can claim markets loved him and his parade. That sort of thing. And worse....

He's already been whipsawing the markets with all the "tariffs on" and "tariffs off" TACO nonsense.

What will eventually start factoring in is when all the pre-tariff stock ups start dwindling and thus supplies drop, the piles of layoffs that have been increasingly announced across industries (some attempting to deploy AI), and when the immigrant purge that is happening causes major crop losses and disruption in the meatpacking industry (again impacting supplies and raising prices).

Powell apparently knows this and keeps telling everyone why they are monitoring before making any big moves.

will be the kiss of death to consumers, citizens, tax payers, and a GIANT BJ to Corporations and Banks??????????

As he finds a yes man to do his bidding. TACO is willing to burn it all down to help his own crypto investments.

It wasn't T.
