Trump May Not Be Done With Powell Yet

What are the long-term implications of Donald Trump's attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell? Host Stephanie Flanders is joined by Krishna Guha, vice chairman of Evercore ISI and head of its Global Policy and Central Bank Strategy Team, and Bloomberg managing editor Kate Davidson.  “Up to this point, the market has confidence that the Fed will do whatever turns out to be necessary to prevent this initial, very big wave of one-time tariff inflation,” Guha says. “But that’s premised on the idea the Fed is free to do what it judges as needed.” As bad as Trump’s trade war has been for markets, Guha warns that if Wall Street begins to doubt Fed independence, things could get much worse.
