| | Good morning. Economists are often accused of being too wishy-washy —specifically relying on the phrase "on the other hand." So as New York Federal Reserve President John Williams stated that the central bank raised interest rates far too fast and too early, he was also supportive of the work the bank has done to create one of the longest-running stock market rallies in history.
Not all are happy, of course. President Trump tweeted that he agrees with Williams on the first part, but, as presidents often do, prefers to take all the credit for the booming economy. A good president wouldn't mind taking some credit, and sharing some, with the expectation that in a declining economy, someone else would also share in the blame. Time will tell how the economy fares under Trump. | | | | | | | | It's Trivia time! Join the fun and win a Trading Tips T-Shirt.
