President Trump said on Fox & Friends that the Fed is making a big mistake.
After the Dow Jones dropped more than 800 points Wednesday, one of the worst sell-offs since February, Trump strongly criticized the Fed for raising rates, again signaling that he wants interest rates to remain low. Asian security markets all experienced drops following Wall Street’s worst transaction day in several months.
