By Bryan Mena, CNN

Washington (CNN) — President Donald Trump on Thursday met with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for the first time in his second term, according to a statement from the central bank.

The meeting, which comes after months of unrelenting attacks from Trump against the Fed chief, took place at the White House and was at Trump’s request.

“Chair Powell did not discuss his expectations for monetary policy, except to stress that the path of policy will depend entirely on incoming economic information and what that means for the outlook,” the Fed said in its statement.
