Fed Chair #JeromePowell wrapped up his June 2, 2025 speech at the Federal Reserve’s International Finance Division 75th Anniversary Conference — and while markets were hoping for signals on rate cuts or a surprise resignation, none of that happened.

Instead, Powell used the occasion to thank the IF Division for 75 years of support. He praised their work in preparing Fed officials for international trips, helping maintain global relationships, and guiding past and present Fed chairs — all part of supporting the Fed’s dual mandate: employment and price stability.

Bottom line?

✅ No policy moves.

✅ No rate talk.

✅ No surprises.

It was a celebration, not a market-moving moment.
