WSJ: Trump Will Sign Executive Order to Roll Back Dodd-Frank

President Donald Trump will sign an executive order Friday unraveling the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform. The move comes as part of a comprehensive plan to rescind regulations set in the wake of the financial crisis.
The White House will also enact another executive action that will dismantle the Department of Labor’s controversial Fiduciary Rule that critics argue would upend the retirement-account advisory business. The Fiduciary Rule requires retirement advisors to act in the best interests of their clients. The new executive order will ask the Labor Department to revise or revoke the Fiduciary Rule.

White House National Economic Council Director Gary Cohn says that limits consumer choice. Cohn said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, “Americans are going to have better choices and Americans are going to have better products because we’re not going to burden the banks with literally hundreds of billions of dollars of regulatory costs every year. The banks are going to be able to price product more efficiently and more effectively to consumers.”

The Trump White House will plan to draft additional orders to revise the rules regarding the Federal Stability Oversight Council, the agency responsible for designating non-bank entities such as insurance firms like MetLife as “systemically important financial institutions,” or SIFIs, adding regulation on the firms. White House Economic Council Director has said previously, “We don’t think nonbanks should be SIFIs.”

President met with business executives, including J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon, and BlackRock Inc. CEO Laurence Fink, pledging to dismantle Dodd-Frank as well as provide a health care and tax overhaul.

Wait. I thought it was party like it's 1939. I thought Trump was Hitler, not Bush. I wish you snowflakes would make up your minds.

Poor petey. Been taking too many DNC prescribed Stupid Pills. Knows nothing about Dodd Frank, but loves pretending to be the sharpest tack in the wall.
Doggone petey. If you had any real intelligence...you'd be dangerous (more to yourself)

More like a strip of masking tape rather than a tack. Sharpness is not a factor with this one.
