To The Moon

There will be another person taking over Powell immediately. There will not be any impact. The potential temporary drop will just be triggered by machines algorithm that reacts to the "bad news" and the market will quickly recover from the sell off 

Market will fall down quite badly and become volatile because of the uncertainty. America will lose credibility and hence the trust of the world.  

No market won't collapse. Anyone is replaceable 

Maybe empty threat, like the tariffs on China 

Put more fire.. we can make more profit..

No simple yes or no answer, may shake market confidence but will supreme court accept the reasons as legitimate? How's long will it drag out? How hard will powellfight to stay in his job? What's are the market conditions then? Who will replace him?  

Yes yes,............

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

If that happens , market will fall into volatility again and with USA on headlines , sell off will happens and create a recession sell off and not really economic recession. Man made not cycles ... the insider will win again .

If Trump fires Powell, markets could face major volatility. Investors might see it as a political move undermining Fed independence, triggering a stock sell-off, bond market shifts, and a weaker U.S. dollar. Key impacts include: Market Volatility: Stocks and bonds may swing wildly due to uncertainty. Fed Independence: Confidence in data-driven decisions could erode, raising long-term risks. Policy Changes: A new chair may signal shifts, creating further instability. Investment Strategies: Go to Cash: Protect your portfolio during initial turmoil.

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell delivered a firm message this week: the Fed isn’t ready to cut interest rates just yet. Despite months of speculation and market hopes for easing, Powell pushed back decisively, saying that "more time is needed" to assess inflation trends. He also made it clear that tariffs pose a real threat of sparking persistent inflation. On top of that, he dismissed the notion of a “Fed Put,” the idea that the central bank would intervene with rate cuts simply to rescue falling markets. This did not sit well with former President Donald Trump. On his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump unleashed his frustration, writing: “Powell is TOO LATE AND WRONG..…Powell’s termination cannot come fast enough!” Trump’s post instantly sparked fresh debate—not only about mo

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

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

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.

Buy the Dip or wait for Tariff Clarity? Under the strain of tariffs uncertainty and erratic public policies, the markets have turned volatile with big corrections. Whether Trump fires Powell makes no difference. It is clear now companies with global supply chains, manufacturing abroad, and major exposure to revenue earning in the U.S. are most vulnerable. The automakers incur most tariffs. The financial sector and healthcare services are relatively insulated from Trump’s Tariffs. It will s best to be patient and wait for opportunities to buy into the ‘safe sectors’ during market dips. Invest carefully based on one’s risk tolerance and investment goals. Do not be ‘rashful and aggressive buying’. Do due diligence before each trade. Thanks @

I do believe that Powell has been too late. He was too late to recognise inflation and now he is also too late to cut rates. Trump is erratic but he is not insane. I don’t think he can fire Powell but he will continue to pressure him to cut rates. I have started to deploy some of my cash to buy the dip but I would also be looking at an opportunity to lock in the profits. I believe the worst is over and the US and China stocks will rise especially if talks are successful but the volatility will still be there which makes it good for swing trading. So for now, I would be trading a portion of my portfolio while keeping a portion for long term investment. @SPOT_ON @Success88
