As the president fumed about Powell, reports last month said the White House considered demoting or firing the Fed chairman.but said he would "be able to do that if [he] wanted." After a Fed meeting last month in which the Fed held rates steady, Powell said he had no plans to leave the post.The Fed is an independent government agency that gets its authority from Congress.raised questions about whether the Fed needs to cut rates at its meeting later this month. On Tuesday, Kudlow argued the central bank should look at low inflation rather than the strength of the economy when deciding whether to cut rates.
"I'm not so sure that the view I've expressed on price signals or the views the president has expressed is necessarily so far from where the Fed is," he said.The central bank increased its benchmark federal funds rate seven times in 2017 and 2018 as it moved away from the near-zero levels deployed in the wake of the financial crisis. The Fed currently has a target rate in the range of 2.25% to 2.5%.
Wait Isn’t that exactly what that means Far from any influence
