FED: Trump Says Being Stopped From Firing Powell, Could Surprise With New Chair
US President Trump when asked on Fed Chair deliberations heading towards the new year in press questions at a bilateral meeting with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.
- Reporter: Have you started the interviews for the Fed Chair?
- Trump: Yes
- Reporter: Who have you already interviewed?
- Trump: I think I already know my choice. I liked him [pointing to US Tsy Sec Bessent] but he’s not going to take the job. He refused. You like Treasury better, right?
- Bessent: Much better sir.
- Trump: So we are talking to various people. Frankly, I’d love to get the guy currently in there out right now, but people are holding me back. He's done a terrible job, hurting housing a little bit. The truth is, we've been so successful, we've blown past his interest rate stupidity. […] He's a fool. He's a stupid man. But we have some very good people.
- Bessent: You’ll be sitting down with them in the near future.
- Trump: We have some surprising names that we have, we have some standard names that everybody is talking about. We may go the standard way. You know, it’s nice to every once in a while go, uh, politically correct. But we have some great names.
EURUSD TECHS: MA Studies Highlight A Dominant Downtrend
- RES 4: 1.1728 High Oct 17
- RES 3: 1.1694 50.0% retracement of the Sep 17 - Nov 5 bear leg
- RES 2: 1.1669 High Oct 28 and key resistance
- RES 1: 1.1656 High Nov 13
- PRICE: 1.1578 @ 16:36 GMT Nov 18
- SUP 1: 1.1530/1469 Low Nov 7 / 5 and the bear trigger
- SUP 2: 1.1425 1.500 proj of the Oct 17 - 22 - 28 price swing
- SUP 3: 1.1392 Low Aug 1 and bear trigger
- SUP 4: 1.1313 Low May 30
Resistance to watch in EURUSD remains 1.1669, the Oct 28 high. Clearance of this hurdle is required to strengthen a short-term bull theme and highlight a stronger reversal. Note that moving average studies are in a bear-mode position. This highlights a dominant downtrend and continues to suggest that gains since Nov 5 are corrective. A reversal lower would refocus attention on key support at 1.1469, the Nov 5 low.
