Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation
- Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.
- Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.
- Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.
- Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: US February Inflation Data Aligns with Fed's Expectations, Powell States
- The latest U.S. inflation data aligns with what the Federal Reserve wants to see, according to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index data released on Friday matched expectations and showed less of a slowdown than last year. However, Powell emphasized that the February report did not undermine the Fed's baseline outlook.
- Some details of the PCE data showed improvements in inflation aspects considered important by the Fed, even though the overall numbers showed little progress in the first two months of the year. Last week, the Fed kept its benchmark overnight interest rate steady at 5.25%-5.50% and narrowly confirmed the baseline projection of a 0.75 percentage point rate decrease by the end of this year.
- Powell has had to reconcile expectations for rate cuts with data indicating a slowdown, if not a halt, in the improvement of inflation numbers in recent weeks. He stated that recent high inflation does not alter the overall narrative of easing price pressures, but acknowledged that the recent data cannot be completely dismissed as a sign of slowed progress.

Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: Fed's Kugler Forecasts Lower Rates This Year
- Inflation could moderate further this year without significant costs to jobs or economic growth, paving the way for borrowing cost cuts, according to Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler.
- Weaker consumer spending is expected to slow economic growth below last year's 3.1% pace, along with a decrease in demand for workers.
- The Fed governor noted that underlying inflation rose at a 2.8% pace in February from a year earlier, significantly above policymakers' 2% target.
- The Federal Reserve will receive another update on the job market's health on Friday with the release of the monthly employment report, expected to show a gain of 213,000 jobs in March. Fed officials were divided in March on the aggressiveness of rate cuts this year.

Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: Trump's 60% Tariff on China, 10% Elsewhere to Raise US Inflation: Model
- The proposed tariff plan by Donald Trump could potentially cause inflation to exceed the Federal Reserve's target, leading to a possible increase in interest rates.
- Analysis indicates that implementing Trump's plan would negatively impact US growth and raise living costs for Americans.
- Experts predict that the proposed tariff measure could push the Fed's preferred price index for personal consumption expenditures to 3.7% by the end of next year, significantly higher than policymakers' target of 2%.
- Trump's proposed plans might result in a 2.5% increase in consumer prices and a 0.5% decrease in gross domestic product after two years, leaving the Fed with the decision to adjust interest rates accordingly.
