US President Donald Trump has hinted that he will judge the performance based on whether the new chairman of the Federal Reserve immediately takes measures to cut interest rates. When asked in an interview with Politico if a quick interest rate cut would be a litmus test for the US Federal Reserve Chairman he personally chose, Trump answered “yes.” In an interview published Tuesday, Trump told Politico, “Yes. This person... should do the same. I don't think he's smart enough, and he doesn't like Trump.” Trump's remarks are an important signal to the new chairman of the Federal Reserve, showing his expectations for the new chairman to be nominated to lead the Federal Reserve.
