Trump pledged in his campaign to throw out what he called stifling regulations, including the financial rules that Congress built to prevent another crisis. As the Trump transition team asserts itself, an all-out repeal of the 2010 Dodd-Frank law that strengthened regulators’ oversight seems improbable. (AP Photo/Paul Sancya, File) (AP)
