特朗普对鲍威尔步步紧逼恐搅乱政策信号 美联储或现“双教皇”局面

Core Viewpoint - The recent actions of the Trump administration against the Federal Reserve have intensified expectations that Jerome Powell will remain on the board after his term as chairman ends in May, potentially creating a competitive power center within the world's most influential central bank, despite Powell's reluctance to do so [1] Group 1 - The U.S. Department of Justice has issued a grand jury subpoena to the Federal Reserve, marking an unprecedented move that is widely seen as an escalation of President Trump's interference in monetary policy [1] - It remains unclear how the legal proceedings will unfold and what decision Powell will ultimately make regarding his future [1] - Individuals familiar with Powell suggest that if he chooses to remain on the board, it would be purely to protect the integrity of the Federal Reserve, with no intention of acting as a "shadow chairman" [1] Group 2 - If legal developments indeed lead Powell to stay on the board, it would undermine Trump's publicly stated plan to control the Federal Reserve board by appointing officials who support significant interest rate cuts [1] - This situation could also create a strong counterbalancing force within the Federal Reserve, regardless of whom Trump ultimately nominates as the next chairman [1]
