Donald Trump says won’t fire Fed chief, signals China tariffs will come down

Donald Trump says won’t fire Fed chief, signals China tariffs will come down

The Hindu
Wednesday, April 23, 2025 5:27 AM GMT

Trump signals lowering tariffs on China, easing market concerns, while Treasury Secretary hints at de-escalation in trade tensions.

Donald Trump said on Tuesday (April 22, 2025) he had no intention of firing the chair of the U.S. Federal Reserve and signalled a “substantial” lowering of tariffs on China — moves that brought relief to global markets spooked by his aggressive policies.

Mr. Trump’s recent outbursts against Fed chair Jerome Powell had fanned concern that he would oust him, sending jitters through markets. The U.S. President had criticised Mr. Powell for warning that the White House’s sweeping tariffs policy would likely reignite inflation.

“I have no intention of firing him,” Mr. Trump said Tuesday. “I would like to see him be a little more active in terms of his idea to lower interest rates — it’s a perfect time to lower interest rates. If he doesn’t, is it the end? No.”

Since Mr. Trump’s return to the White House in January, the United States has imposed additional tariffs of 145% on many products from China.

These include duties initially imposed over China’s alleged role in the fentanyl supply chain and later over practices Washington deemed unfair.

Beijing has responded with sweeping counter-tariffs of 125% on U.S. goods.

Mr. Trump acknowledged Tuesday that 145% is a “very high” level, and that this will “come down substantially.”
