Neither Trump, Nor Powell, Know What Interest Rates Should Be End the Fed



Peppered within this week’s headlines was President Trump’s on-again, off-again firing of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.

Markets determine prices; not the president, and not something called a “Federal Reserve Chairman.”
