President Trump has posted a new announcement on Truth Social, the social media platform. He wrote:

““Too Late” Jerome Powell is costing our Country Hundreds of Billions of Dollars. He is truly one of the dumbest, and most destructive, people in Government, and the Fed Board is complicit. Europe has had 10 cuts, we have had none. We should be 2.5 Points lower, and save $BILLIONS on all of Biden’s Short Term Debt. We have LOW inflation! TOO LATE’s an American Disgrace!”

How Will Trump’s Statement Affect the Stock Market?

This latest post has the potential to affect the stock market. That’s because Donald Trump’s criticism of Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy could lead to increased volatility in the stock market. Financial institutions like Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase & Co., and Goldman Sachs Group may experience fluctuations as investors react to potential changes in interest rate expectations. Additionally, financial ETFs such as the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund, SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF, and Vanguard Financials ETF could see shifts in value as market sentiment adjusts to the political discourse surrounding monetary policy.

Here are some of the stocks that might be affected:
Bank of America ((BAC)),
JPMorgan Chase & Co. ((JPM)),
Goldman Sachs Group ((GS)),
Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLF)),
SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF ((KRE)),
Vanguard Financials ETF ((VFH)).
