Investors need to be looking past September to the end of Jerome Powell's term, says John Petrides. “The market is going to start pricing in that whoever the next Fed Chair is, they'll be dovish.” He says the market will assume the new Fed Chair will be in-line with President Trump's desire to lower rates. However, Trump's ‘Big Beautiful Bill' and other U.S. policies are increasing debt, potentially straining demand in the bond market. Thus, he thinks the front end of the curve will come down while the longer end remains higher, creating a wider spread.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Victor Davis Hanson explains the long-running tensions between Jerome Powell and Trump, why Trump has dubbed him “Too Late Powell,” and the economic consequences for everyday Americans on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ The Wall Street Journal was forecasting a ‘stock crash,' a ‘trade war,' ‘uncertainty over tariffs,' ‘anemic GDP,' and all of the barometers… At that point, you would've thought that Powell, who agreed, basically, with the consensus of the economic media and most of the economists, why didn't he intervene in fears that they were right, that we were headed toward a recession and lower rates? Instead, he didn't do anything. “ Jerome Powell has been in this fight with Donald Trump. … And whether we like it or not, he's acting emotionally or angrily to Donald Trump. And he has been under threat of being fired. He does not want to show that he's going to back down and lose the independence of the Fed to the president. The problem with that stance is it really hurts millions of Americans.”

President Donald Trump has been raging at Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell for weeks, demanding that he cut interest rates. But on Wednesday, the Fed declined—and worse for Trump, Powell delivered a blunt assessment of his tariffs, claiming they are “pushing up prices,” and that “near-term measures of inflation expectations have moved up.” Given that this comes right when more of Trump's tariffs are set to take effect on August 1, and given that Powell is directly defying Trump's fury, that amounts to a harsh blow for the president. Indeed, Trump is also venting his fury at various GOP senators for not doing his bidding. On top of all that, two new polls show his approval rating down to an abysmal 40 percent, with one finding his approval on the economy even lower. We talked to MSNBC.com columnist James Downie, author of a new piece on Democrats and the midterm elections. We discuss why Trump is weaker politically than he looks, why various dynamics look poised to make that worse, and why it's high time for Democrats to start acting like it.
