#美国非农就业数据未达市场预期 Recently, the direction of Federal Reserve policies has become the focus of market attention. Former Fed Chairs Greenspan, Bernanke, and Yellen have issued rare synchronized statements, publicly questioning the pressure on current Chair Powell, calling it a threat to the independence of the Federal Reserve.
The background is as follows: Trump has recently called for the Fed to "significantly cut interest rates" multiple times, while also promoting tariffs as a stimulus to the economy. These three central bank leaders, who have served six presidents, believe that problems arise when political pressure interferes with monetary policy decisions.
Their core concerns are twofold:
**Macroeconomic level** — Once central bank independence is weakened, unchecked rate cuts could release inflationary pressures, ultimately harming the economy. This is not a power game, but a matter that concerns the credibility foundation of the US dollar.
**Market level** — When central bank policies become political tools, investors lose confidence in the stability of the monetary system. Historically, whenever central banks bow to political pressure, market turmoil often follows.
The question now is: should monetary policy be led by professional judgment, or should it compromise to political pressure? This choice will ultimately affect the USD exchange rate, global capital flows, and even your asset allocation.
What do you think — is this economic stimulus or a trust crisis? In the tug-of-war between central banks and politics, how should the market respond?

Three former chairpersons speak out together? This is getting interesting... Can political pressure on the central bank really devalue the US dollar?

ngl this screams red flags all over... political pressure on fed = loss of institutional credibility, pattern analysis suggests we're heading toward a trust erosion event. DYOR folks.

The fact that three former chairs spoke out at the same time is indeed interesting, indicating that Powell is under a lot of pressure.
When the central bank becomes a political tool, retail investors will have to run away.
Lowering interest rates sounds comfortable, but only after inflation hits do you realize how tricky it is.
Instead of worrying about whether to cut interest rates or not, it's better to buy Bitcoin at the bottom.
This non-farm payroll data is poor, and the underlying reason is still the lack of clear policy.
Powell, hold on! Don't let Trump hijack the Federal Reserve.
History shows us that the result of central bank concessions is asset devaluation.
Political interference in the central bank always ends up hurting ordinary investors.
I have a feeling that the US dollar will experience volatility in the second half of the year.
It seems this matter isn't that simple—tariffs plus rate cuts = inflation spiral.

Former Chairmen stepping forward at the same time, this is indeed not simple... Has the Federal Reserve become a political tool? Well, our crypto circle has long experienced that.

With both rate cuts and tariffs, how can the dollar remain stable... Those with risk assets should quickly clear their positions.

Wait, does this mean Powell might not withstand the pressure? The market's reaction is just beginning.

Undermining independence = full-blown inflation. Do you believe food prices will double again within two years? By then, it will be too late to regret.
---
Political players always do this: first use sweet-talking ( rate cuts ), then hit with tariffs, causing the market to be scared every day.

I just want to know, if there are unchecked rate cuts, will it break the DXY below 90? Have you all set your stop-losses?
