US stocks delivered a positive performance on Wednesday, April 23, after President Trump pointed out that he does not intend to fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. This statement helped ease Wall Street’s fears about the independence of the central bank. Additionally, Trump softened his tone on tariffs and hinted that the high duties on Chinese imports could be scaled back in the future.

The Nasdaq led the gains as it increased by 2.5%. The S&P 500 rose nearly 1.7%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average increased about 1.1%, or 400 points. Earlier in the day, the Nasdaq was up over 4% at one point and the Dow had added about 1,100 points. However, these gains faded after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told reporters there has been “no unilateral offer from the president to deescalate” the trade war with China.
Despite this pullback, Wall Street remained optimistic because of President Trump’s softer tone on both the Fed and tariffs. On Tuesday, Trump said he expects China tariffs to come down significantly after Bessent had called the current tariffs “unsustainable.”
Trump also told reporters from the Oval Office that he never intended to remove Powell but repeated his desire for the Fed chair to lower interest rates. These comments brought relief to investors who had feared that a possible conflict between President Trump and Powell could add further uncertainty in a market that is already affected by tariffs.
