Trump Changes Tone on Powell & Tariffs; Musk Will Refocus on Tesla
About this episode
1) President Donald Trump said he had no intention of firing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell despite his frustration with the central bank not moving more quickly to slash interest rates.
2) President Donald Trump said he plans to be “very nice” to China in any trade talks and that tariffs will drop if the two countries can reach a deal, a sign he may be backing down from his tough stance on Beijing amid market volatility.
3) Elon Musk vowed to pull back “significantly” from his work with the US government and pay more mind to Tesla Inc., assuaging investors concerned about the carmaker’s worst quarter in years.
