Trump renews criticism of Fed's Powell for not cutting rates

Reuters05-08

WASHINGTON, May 8 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump renewed his criticism on Thursday of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, complaining that the Fed is refusing to lower interest rates.

Trump said cutting interest rates would be "like jet fuel" for the economy "but he doesn't want to do it." He said Powell is "not in love with me."
