Trump Continues To Pressure Powell

On Wednesday, former President Donald Trump used Truth Social to intensify pressure on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates, blaming high rates for harming families and slowing the housing market. Trump criticized Powell as “Too Late” and claimed the U.S. could save $1 trillion annually if rates were three points lower. Despite Trump’s repeated public attacks, the Fed has not responded with any rate cuts since December, when Joe Biden was still president.

#Economy & #Stocks Review - The Fed Is Trapped

E&S Review

Much of today's economic data, including officially collected and produced time series, is highly unreliable. Statisticians use well-documented techniques such as geometric smoothing, seasonal adjustments, substitution, double counting, and hedonic adjustments to modify economic outcomes dating back to the 1980s. Politicians and central bankers often leverage these techniques for political gain.

Data manipulated by these statistical methods are frequently revised without clear notification to the public, especially when administrations or public policies change.

He used it to describe inflation driven by tariffs, suggesting that these effects are temporary and largely confined to this year. Powell's remarks reassured investors, leading to a significant market rally.

That rally, however, has been erased.
