Trump Complains About Rising Interest Rates, Calling the Fed 'My Biggest Threat'

"It's independent so I don't speak to him, but I'm not happy with what he's doing, because it's going too fast," Mr. Trump said in an interview with the Fox Business Network, referring to Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, whom he nominated last year. "You looked at the last inflation numbers, they're very low."

The U.S 10-year Treasury note yield was down 0.6 basis points to 3.158%. The two-year note yield was up by 0.6 basis points to 2.867%, while the 30-year bond yield fell 1.2 basis points to 3.330%, according to Dow Jones Market Data
