  President Trump's wish for a rate cut may be looking more realistic as economic uncertainty clears—but it still won't be happening any time soon.

Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chairman, has indicated that the central bank might consider cutting interest rates if the U.S. economy shows signs of slowing down due to the ongoing trade tensions with China.

Powell emphasized that the Fed's decisions would be data-dependent, focusing on incoming economic indicators. Meanwhile, negotiations between the U.S. and China continue, with both sides expressing a willingness to reach a deal, though significant differences remain. The possibility of a rate cut has been welcomed by some market analysts, who believe it could provide a necessary boost to the economy amidst the uncertainty caused by the trade war.
