Analysts cited by Ip say that the attempt \u2014 the first of its kind in the Fed\u2019s 111-year history \u2014 may be a turning point. If Trump succeeds, he would effectively draw the curtains on the central bank\u2019s independence from presidential control, a principle that has underpinned US monetary policy since 1951.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong style=\"background-color: transparent;\">The markets \u201care not properly priced for what increasingly seems likely to be a rupture in<\/strong><strong style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> Fed independence<\/strong><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">,\u201d Evercore ISI analysts noted. So far, optimism around rate cuts has helped keep stock markets buoyant, driven by Fed Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s recent comments stating that tariffs are unlikely to stoke sustained inflation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>But if the Fed becomes more beholden to political pressure, investors will quickly have <\/strong><strong>to adapt to a very different economic future. <\/strong>Trump\u2019s broader strategy seems aimed at stacking the Fed board with loyalists, with the purpose of letting future rate decisions be informed not just by data, but by campaign cycles, potentially diluting the Fed\u2019s core focus on inflation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>If Cook is successfully replaced off the back of fraud allegations \u2014 a topic Trump has a <\/strong><strong>lot of experience in \u2014 Trump appointees would hold four of seven governor seats<\/strong>, giving him leverage over monetary policy even without directly removing Fed Chair Jerome Powell. \u201cOnce we have a majority, housing is gonna swing and it\u2019s gonna be great,\u201d Trump said on Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Trump\u2019s current and prospective Fed nominees are openly political \u2014 a major break from <\/strong><strong>past practice. <\/strong>His candidates now signal clear policy stances aligned with his administration. Take Stephen Miran, who, while serving as an investment strategist last year, warned against cutting rates with inflation around 3%. Now, however, as chair of Trump\u2019s Council of Economic Advisers and a contender to Powell, Miran has embraced Trump\u2019s view that rates are too high. Another potential appointee by Trump, former World Bank president David Malpass, has recently written that the Fed should cut rates to support the USD, even though, by his logic, the greenback\u2019s steady decline this year impedes such cuts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p
