6. Federal Reserve -
① Powell: Current policy is in a favorable position, allowing for a wait-and-see approach before considering interest rate adjustments. Legislators privately say I am right. The vast majority of officials believe that a rate cut later this year is appropriate. It is premature to say the dollar is declining, and statements regarding this claim are too early.
② Bostic: There is currently no need for a rate cut, and a 25 basis point cut is expected later this year.
③ Harker: There is no urgent reason to cut rates at this time. Interest rate policy may remain unchanged for quite some time. There is no need to overreact to funds flowing out of the dollar.
④ Kashkari: The Federal Reserve is in a wait-and-see mode in the face of tariff uncertainties.
⑤ Williams: Tariffs and uncertainties will lead to slower economic growth and rising inflation this year.
⑥ Collins: The current moderately restrictive monetary policy stance is necessary.
⑦ Barr: Monetary policy is in a favorable position, and the Federal Reserve will observe how the economic situation develops. #btc #eth #比特币
