US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that despite the Justice Department's ongoing criminal investigation into Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, he currently has no plans to fire him, and that it is "too early" to determine what action he will ultimately take. When asked if he would attempt to remove Powell from his post, Trump told Reuters, "I don't have any such plans at the moment." When asked if the investigation gave him a reason to take action, Trump added, "Right now, we're taking a deferred approach with him, and we're looking at how to proceed next. But I can't go into details. It's too early to say." (Jinshi)
