Possible Shadow Fed Chair: Will 2025 Rate Cut Ignite Market?

President Donald Trump said on Friday that a decision on the next Federal Reserve chair will be coming out soon, adding that a good Fed chair would lower interest rates. "It's coming out very soon". Trump criticizes Powell's rate policy again. ---------- How do you expect Trump's move? Will the "shadow" fed chair bring more rate cuts? Is it a good signal to fuel the market or make the market more chaotic?

Earlier on Friday, Trump once again publicly called out Jerome Powell, demanding a full one-percentage-point rate cut. In a social media post, Trump again used his nickname for Powell, “Too Late,” writing:“The Fed’s ‘Too Late’ is a disaster! Europe has already cut rates ten times, and we (the U.S.) haven’t cut once. Despite him (Powell), our country is still doing well. Cut a full point—rocket fuel!”Since Trump took office this year, the Federal Reserve has held steady, refraining from rate cuts. Back in late January, when Trump directly lashed out at Powell, Wall Street news outlet Jianwen noted that Peter Conti-Brown, a Fed historian at the University of Pennsylvania, commented:“What Trump says to the Fed doesn’t matter as much as what he actually does.”

Ah 😂 the classic Trump playbook - Lower rates, pump the markets, & hope inflation doesn't RSVP to the party 🎉 🥳. If the "Shadow " Fed Chair follow suits, we might just end up with rate cuts faster than a tweet storm. Who's ready for some 🎢 volatility? [Helpless]

Dollar Bashing - The beginning of the end?

USD is in trouble... I have said that 2 years ago (dated April 2023) in a series of articles titled, "US pushes China towards world dominance Series (5 Parts Series)".  Not sure if anyone had read that, not to mention remember those... Having said that, when I wrote those, even though I had mentioned Donald Trump as one of the main culprit for the demise of the dollar, the current scenario is not one I had predicted. The rest of those 5 part-series remains intact. I think 🐯 should give those articles another review and share with the readers! @TigerStars  I would love to share them here again (but not sure how to link them). Each article is a heavyweight on their own right and worth a read... I will probably repost

What Happens If Trump Fires Powell?

$S&P 500(.SPX)$ $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ The Legal, Economic, and Political Stakes of Undermining the Federal Reserve’s Independence As the 2024 election cycle intensifies, former President Donald Trump has reignited his feud with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Trump has openly criticized Powell’s handling of monetary policy, particularly over interest rate decisions, and has once again floated the idea of firing him should he return to office. This hypothetical scenario — the removal of a sitting Fed Chair — would not only test the legal framework surrounding the central bank’s independence but could also rattle global markets and shake investor confidence in the stability of U.S. institutions.

Today, ECB announced a 25 bps cut, bringing it down to 2.25%.Markets have long speculated that Trump’s erratic tariff moves were a pressure tactic aimed at forcing the Fed to cut rates. Now that Europe has lowered its rates, Powell’s continued inaction has made Trump even angrier.On his social media platform Truth Social, Trump lashed out:"Powell is TOO LATE AND WRONG. Yesterday he issued another report that was, as usual, a complete mess! Oil prices are down, groceries (even eggs!) are down, and the USA is getting RICH ON TARIFFS.…Powell’s termination cannot come fast enough!"It’s currently unclear whether Trump is referring to Powell’s scheduled term ending in May 2026, or if he intends to push for an early removal.

Liquidity Crisis:Yale Endowment Model In Trouble

In recent years, the endowment funds of top U.S. colleges and universities have frequently attracted attention due to their huge private equity exposure. 2024, Yale University announced that it would sell $6 billion in private assets (15% of its endowment fund) through the secondary market, and Harvard University is also facing liquidity pressures in the context of a crisis in its tax-exempt status.The sell-off storm not only exposes the inherent contradictions of the "Yale model", but may also become a trigger to burst the bubble of the private equity market, triggering a systemic risk comparable to the subprime mortgage crisis.Motivation for the sell-off: the flaws of the Yale model in the volatile gaming marketIvy League endowments have long played the role of "privileged players" in th

It’s April 2025, and with Donald Trump now firmly in office for his second term, the spotlight turns once again to the Federal Reserve—and Chair Jerome Powell. Their strained history is no secret. Trump publicly criticized Powell multiple times during his first term, labeling him an obstacle to economic growth and blaming him for keeping interest rates “too high.” Now, with Trump back in power and inflation still a political hot potato, the question isn't if Trump will clash with Powell—it’s how far he might go. Can Trump actually fire Powell? This is where the legal gray zone begins. The Federal Reserve is structured to be independent from political influence. Powell’s current term runs through May 2026. While Trump can’t directly fire him without cause, he might attempt to demote Powell

Can Trump Fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell?

Trump believes he can, because the legal provisions are vague. There is no legal precedent regarding whether a president has the authority to dismiss a Fed chair before the end of their term.Powell made it clear six years ago that if his position were challenged, he would take legal action — a stance he has reiterated in recent public statements. This is why Trump is reportedly seeking the opinion of Supreme Court justices.However, the Supreme Court is almost certain to reject such a request. The reason is simple: the Federal Reserve must maintain independence from the federal government and the U.S. Treasury.Treasury Secretary Bessent understands this well. He believes the move is extremely risky and offers little to no benefit. This week, he stated that the Fed's independence in monetary

Daily Scoop🍨: Trump Calls For Lower Interest Rates Now 📺🍆👌👇

$E-mini Nasdaq 100 - main 2506(NQmain)$   U.S. President Donald Trump called on Monday for "lower interest rates NOW," slamming Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell as "Mr. Too Late" and "a major loser." "'Preemptive Cuts' in Interest Rates are being called for by many," Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform. "With Energy Costs way down, food prices (including Biden's egg disaster!) substantially lower, and most other 'things' trending down, there is virtually No Inflation. With these costs trending so nicely downward, just what I predicted they would do, there can almost be no inflation, but there can be a SLOWING of the economy unless Mr. Too Late, a major loser, lowers interest rates, NOW.

I think if Trump fires Powell, it could create significant uncertainty in the financial markets, especially given Powell's stance on rejecting rate cuts and his focus on assessing inflation trends. Powell's term as a Fed governor lasts until February 2028, so any attempt to remove him early would likely face legal and political challenges, as the Fed's independence is a cornerstone of U.S. monetary policy. Trump's frustration, as seen in his Truth Social post calling Powell“too late and wrong,”stems from his desire for lower rates to boost economic growth, but firing Powell could backfire by eroding confidence in the Fed, leading to market volatility and a potential spike in Treasury yields. On the other hand, I see a possibility that Trump's threat might be more rhetorical than actionable

Trump’s comments definitely stirred things up, but I’m not making any drastic moves like going fully to cash. Volatility is still relatively contained, and the FedWatch tool still shows decent odds for a June cut. That tells me the market isn’t panicking—yet. Personally, I’m sticking to my plan and watching key levels rather than reacting to headlines. I follow a disciplined dip-buying strategy, especially during periods of uncertainty like this. The Fed’s cautious tone makes sense to me—cutting too soon could backfire if inflation flares up again. So while Europe is easing, I think Powell is right to wait for more clarity on the inflation trend. As for Trump trying to fire Powell, it’s more political noise than a real risk—for now. The Fed’s independence is critical, and any serious attem

🌟🌟🌟The US Federal Reserve's independence is a cornerstone of its ability to make unbiased monetary policy decisions.  Any attempt by Donald Trump to fire Jerome Powell for policy disagreements could severely undermine this independence.  This could cause a snowball effect and erode public and market confidence in the Federal Reserve's ability to operate free from political pressure. The recent selloff of the US long term Treasury Bonds are a strong indicator of the global and market uncertainty and trust in the strength of the US markets. Despite this uncertainty, I will continue to stay invested and dollar cost average into my favourite index ETFs and let the magic of compounding happen over a long term horizon.
