Key Statements from the President of the U.S. Federal Reserve
The economy is in good shape.
Inflation has dropped to excellent levels and is close to the 2% target, but there are upward risks due to tariffs.
Our stabilization policy gives us a good position to respond to everything that arises in the U.S. economy.
The risks related to inflation growth and the unemployment rate are increasing.
The impact of tariffs on exports has affected U.S. GDP.
The contraction of the U.S. economy in the first quarter of 2025 reflects an unusual shift in the trade balance.
We see and observe the effects of uncertainty and lack of clarity on investment and spending.
The labor market is somewhat balanced at the moment.
