US President Donald Trump complained on Wednesday about the Federal Reserve (the US central bank) and once again criticized the bank's chairman Jerome Powell for what Trump considered a delay in cutting interest rates. Trump said in a speech in the South Korean city of Gwangju: 'Jerome Powell is very late,' which drew laughter from the audience of executives from several companies and leaders gathered at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum summit.
