Jay Powell made it clear Fed is not going to rescue markets

Jerome Powell’s recent message to the markets was crystal clear: he is not going to swoop in to save the day. The Federal Reserve Chair made it known during an appearance at the Economic Club of Chicago that there will be no immediate changes in interest rates or intervention in the bond market in response to the turmoil caused by President Trump’s tariffs.

During a key moment at the event, Powell was asked by professor Raghuram Rajan about whether there was a “Fed put” in the stock market. Powell’s response was unequivocal: “I’m going to say no.” This statement dashed any hopes that the Fed would step in to calm the bond market if necessary.

While markets have been grappling with uncertainty and volatility, Powell believes that they are functioning as expected given the circumstances. He reassured that the bond market remains orderly despite recent turmoil, attributing it to the market processing a unique development.

This week, Powell disappointed investors and the President by indicating that the central bank will wait for greater clarity before considering any adjustments to interest rates. He foresees Trump’s tariffs leading to higher inflation and slower growth, making it challenging for the Fed to achieve its goals of stable prices and full employment.

Powell emphasized the importance of controlling inflation and keeping long-term inflation expectations anchored, especially in the face of potential inflationary effects from tariffs. This stance seemed to irk the President, who took to social media and the Oval Office to criticize Powell for not cutting interest rates.

Despite facing pressure from the President to lower rates, Powell has maintained his independence and commitment to not bowing to political pressure. He reiterated that the Fed’s decisions are based on economic factors and not influenced by external forces.

As the debate between Powell and Trump continues, investors are left to navigate the uncertain waters of the market. Powell’s firm stance on maintaining the Fed’s mandate and independence sets the stage for a potentially rocky road ahead.
