How Will the Powell Investigation Impact Markets in 2026?

Another great example of TDS! All of the sudden, the Looney left is pro fed, even after calling for it to be dismantled, along with law enforcement and other agencies. Trump also floated the idea of 10% interest cap on credit cards for a year. Now, the Looney left, is all of the sudden pro high interest credit card rates???? LOL! The TDS mind virus is an ideological brainwashing.

You think what is happening in Iran is interesting? Just wait until it starts here. This regime will need to be toppled just the same as any other dictatorship.

I am not from the USA (further North) I honestly think J Powell has done really well in very difficult circumstances. A very dignified gentleman. JMO God bless Canada.

Seems like every single obamma associate and appointee is an anti-U.S. criminal.

Little impact short-term as Powell is a respected figure in finance and his tenure ends in may anyway. However, the move is a clear signal that the Trump id... admininistration is targeting the Fed and if being successful this will put a dent into Fed independence and thus lose trust in the Fed. Losing trust in the context of financial markets means added risk premiums, actual reduction of independence from erratic politics translates into higher volatility.

Powell needs to go so market can rip

Nothing stops this market anymore. It only goes up.

I liked powell, till he became political and one sided. don't have to like the President but, you really shouldn't try to hinder progress either...

this crook is a slave of the system, he is responsible for the inflation, he was not politically independent, he even doesn't have a PhD :) there is no impact for the market, we need the new chair with double powell's IQ :)
