Things have become embarrassing for the federal reserve.
With their attention to inflation, officials tend to keep fixed rates when they meet in Washington on Tuesday and Wednesday. But fears of slowdown are escalating, President Donald Trump and some of his deputies continue to shine the central bank to reduce the interest rate.
In this connection, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell may have been relieved by government data on Friday, indicating a 177,000 health jump in salary statements in April. As long as the labor market holds a constant, it can justify the Federal Reserve more easily.
Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve’s favorite inflation scale showed that price pressures continued to reduce slowly. Although Powell & Co. You will usually welcome such cooling, but the US highest duties on imports are risked with the progress made to inflation.
In an interview with NBC’s Meet The Press with Christine Wilker, which was broadcast on Sunday, Trump insisted that he was not planning to shoot Powell despite his constant criticism about the pace of price cuts.
In fact, uncertainty is the prevailing factor now for the main central banks around the world. The White House is following deals on the customs tariff front, which can again convert the scene, which is a nightmare for anyone trying to predict future economic conditions.
What Bloomberg Economic says:
“We expect Powell to retract the market pricing and a reference to a renewed priority for price stability. Officials such as Richmond team Thomas Parkin and the Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kogler have expressed his concerns that inflation may be reduced.
