Market Watch
As Democrats and Republicans squabble over what kind of coronavirus relief to provide next to millions of suffering Americans, the chairman of the Federal Reserve has a simple message: Do everything you can.
Jerome Powell, the head of the powerful U.S. central bank, plans to reiterate his message on Tuesday at a Senate hearing to explain how the Fed is helping businesses and governments to cope with unprecedented financial strains caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Congress have given the Fed the authority to make potentially trillions of dollars in loans.
