FED povećale kamatne stope i pored pritisaka predsednika Trampa. Da li su na sastanku FOMC prepoznali posledice dugogodišnjeg QE i prevelike likvidnosti, te spašavaju finansijsko tržište ili ekonomski stručnjaci ne haju za poruku predsednika koga brine usporavanje realnog sektora ekonomije? Četvrto povećanje kamatne stope u 2018. godini dovelo je referentnu kamatnu stopu na nivo od 2.5% (porast od 25 bp).
Federal Reserve Board – Federal Reserve issues FOMC statement
The Fed increased interest rates despite pressure from President Trump. At the FOMC meeting, did they recognize the consequences of long-term QE and excessive liquidity, and are they saving the financial market, or are economic experts not listening to the message of the president who is worried about the slowdown in the real sector of the economy? The fourth increase in the interest rate in 2018 brought the reference interest rate to the level of 2.5% (an increase of 25 bp).
