Comment Trump prépare une nouvelle offensive sur l'indépendance de la Fed Les Echos
What it means
Pressure on Fed independence has historically been associated with a weaker dollar and higher gold prices as investors seek safe havens, while long-duration bonds may come under pressure from concerns about future inflation if monetary policy becomes politically influenced. These moves tend to be moderate unless the threat escalates into concrete action.
