Portavoz de la Reserva Federal: La audiencia de Waugh niega haber prometido bajar las tasas a Trump y critica duramente a la Fed por haberse perdido

Golden Finance reports, “The Federal Reserve mouthpiece” Nick Timiraos analyzes the content of the hearing of Federal Reserve Chairman nominee Kevin Woeh, chosen by Trump, pointing out that Warren was fully aggressive at the confirmation hearing, refusing to answer whether Trump lost the election, and was angrily rebuked by Warren as a “puppet”; he also counterattacked the Fed for “losing direction and engaging in politics”; and repeatedly denied promising low interest rates to the president. Woeh’s argument is that a Federal Reserve chairman who dares not even state a simple fact that might upset the president who nominated him will not stand up to oppose that president at critical moments, and what is needed now is “systemic reform in policy making,” including a new inflation framework, new tools, and new ways of conveying information.
Furthermore, Woeh repeatedly denied to bipartisan senators that Trump had sought any commitment on interest rates, stating “The president has never asked me to commit to any specific interest rate decision, period. If he had asked, I would never have agreed, but he never did.”
