#PowellRemarks The president of the Fed, Jerome Powell, reaffirmed today a cautious stance in his latest speech. He highlighted that, although inflation has decreased to around 2%, risks persist such as potential repercussions from new tariffs and international tensions. He underscored the importance of monitoring the labor market and energy prices before taking action, and mentioned that there may be only one rate cut in 2025, with conditions still uncertain. Powell emphasized that the Federal Reserve will not act hastily, avoiding abrupt moves that could destabilize the economic recovery. His message conveys a balanced approach: firm against inflation, but flexible according to data.
