According to reports, recently Trump expressed complex views on the issue of whether Fed Chairman Powell should stay or go during a media interview. On one hand, Trump claimed he would not hesitate to fire Powell and criticized the current Fed's interest rate policy as too harsh. On the other hand, he acknowledged that abruptly firing Powell could have adverse effects on the market and believed that Powell would likely continue to serve as chairman. This statement reflects Trump's considerations between economic policy and market stability. Although he holds a critical attitude towards the Fed's monetary policy, Trump seems to also recognize the risks that could arise from suddenly changing the Fed chairman. This contradictory attitude has sparked speculation about the direction of U.S. monetary policy.
