US Pres. Trump: Interest rates should be lowered

US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that interest rates should be lowered, adding that they would "go hand in hand" with upcoming tariffs.

While speaking to reporters at an event to welcome home a hostage released by Russian President Vladimir Putin late Tuesday, Trump responded "we'll see," when asked whether reciprocal tariffs will be announced on Wednesday.

Market reaction

These comments failed to trigger a noticeable market reaction. At the time of press, the US Dollar Index was up 0.05% on the day at 107.98.
