“It is a bigger risk to encourage people to take on too much more risk at this time,” he said in an interview broadcast on Bloomberg Television, adding that doing so could worsen the next downturn and leave the Fed with little ammunition to encourage additional spending when it is needed. Rosengren was one of two dissenting votes at the U.S. central bank on its decision last month to cut borrowing costs for the first time since 2008. Now, he said, he does not currently see a need for any further action.

Trump complains again about Fed Chair Powell, says he lacks 'vision'President Donald Trump on Monday criticized Fed Chairman Jerome Powell ahead of the central banker's highly anticipated speech later this week. In a series... My opinion: Why? Every 10 yrs we have some type of a recession? Money! The FRB manipulates currency through interest rates. When the economy is good stocks are high. Selling stocks isn't profitable. A sell off, creating a recession is good for Wall Street. Sell high, But low. So funny how Trump complained about interest rates going higher about 1 year ago- And Guess what he was 110% correct as usual and media and experts were 100% wrong as usual

Fed Chief Wedged Between a Slowing Economy and an Angry PresidentFederal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell faces scrutiny from markets and the White House over his stewardship of interest rates in an economy unsettled by a trade dispute with China and fears of recession. THE FED RAISED RATES FOUR TIMES AFTER TRUMP ANNOUNCED THE TARIFFS. IF THEY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THE TARIFFS, THEY SHOULD HAVE HELD OFF RAISING RATES...sorry. Just so damn frustrating to hear this excuse from the Fed. I can’t ever remember a bigger idiot than Trump
