President Donald Trump reiterated his call for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates during a Cabinet meeting on Monday, as he continues to push the central bank on monetary policy.
“Generally, prices are coming down, and energy prices are coming down, and I hope the Fed lowers interest rates, and then you get to see interest rates coming down,” Trump said.
