Friday, 18 July 2025 Tensions between governments and central banks are common. Governments often prefer low interest rates for economic growth. Central banks prioritize controlling inflation. This difference leads to conflict. US President Trump criticized Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell. Historical examples include Nixon's pressure on Arthur Burns. Central bank independence is crucial. Government interference can negatively impact markets. The struggle for control continues.
Trump has officially ruled out Scott Bessent for the next Fed chair, telling CNBC that Bessent “wants to stay where he is.” The decision follows the surprise resignation of Fed Governor Adriana Kugler, giving Trump another opportunity to reshape the Federal Reserve with loyalists. Remaining candidates include Kevin Warsh, Kevin Hassett, and Fed Governor Chris Waller—whom Trump praised as “very good.” With Powell’s term ending in 2026, Trump is considering naming a “shadow chair” to counteract his policies and align the Fed with his low-rate agenda.
