The post A First in US History! Donald Trump Announces He Dismissed the Fed Member Whose Resignation He Called For! Here’s What You Need to Know… appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. US President Donald Trump has been saying for a long time that the Fed should cut interest rates, stating that the economic situation is good. Trump, who has frequently pressured the FED and FED Chairman Jerome Powell on this issue and called for their resignation, showed how serious he is about interest rate cuts with his latest move. Accordingly, Trump announced in a post on his Truth Social account that he had dismissed FED member Lisa Cook, whose resignation he had recently called for. Trump stated that the US Constitution and the Fed law allow and authorize the removal of a board member if there is cause. At this point, Trump stated that he had sufficient reason to dismiss Lisa Cook on the grounds that she made false statements in mortgage agreements. “By virtue of the authority granted by Article II of the United States Constitution and the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 (with amendments), you are hereby removed from your position on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, effective immediately. The Federal Reserve Act provides that you may be removed from office for cause at my discretion. (See 12 USC § 242). I have determined that there is sufficient cause for your removal.” Lisa Cook, appointed by former President Joe Biden, responded with a harsh statement after Trump claimed he fired her: Cook stated that President Trump “does not have the authority” to remove him from office. “President Trump acted as if he fired me for cause, even though there was no legal justification for doing so and he had no authority to do so. I will not resign and will continue to work to support the US economy, as I have done since 2022. I will continue to do my job.” Trump’s dismissal of Fed member Lisa Cook… The post A First in US History! Donald Trump Announces He Dismissed the Fed Member Whose Resignation He Called For!

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.
