The Federal Reserve is expected to leave its short-term interest rate unchanged on Wednesday for the fifth straight meeting, a move that will likely underscore the deep divide between how Chair Jerome Powell and President Donald Trump see the economy.

President Trump has kept up his campaign for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to lower rates despite saying there was "no pressure."

President Trump and his top aides have criticized Jerome H. Powell, the Fed chair, for his management of both the economy and a $2.5 billion revamp of the central bank’s headquarters.
