Trump Pushes Against The Feds
- 6 years ago
On Friday President Donald Trump tweeted that monetary-policy tightening "hurts all that we have done," suggesting that higher borrowing costs could undermine the economy's gains. Business Insider reports his comments came a day after he said he was "not thrilled" that the Federal Reserve was raising interest rates. Trump also accused the European Union, China, and "others" of manipulating their currencies lower and creating an uneven playing field with the US.
