Trump may have to wait for rate cuts until the Iran war is over, he tells Fortune

U.S. President Donald Trump conceded in an interview with Fortune magazine published on Monday that he may have to wait until the war with Iran was over for more interest rate cuts.

“You can’t really look at the figures until the war is over,” he said.

Trump said Iran was “dying to sign” a ceasefire deal with the U.S. “But they make a deal, and then they send you a paper that has no relationship to the deal you made.” he told Fortune.
