Federal Reserve Monitors Inflation And Employment Risks

RTHK Radio 1 Hong Kong Washington D.C. 14d13d Impact 8

The Federal Reserve indicated that inflation remains high due to global energy prices. The Central Bank's Monetary Policy Committee reduced the Selic basic interest rate by 0.25 percentage points, from 14.75% to 14.5% per year. The cut occurs amid Middle East conflict pressures. The Copom mentioned that the Selic rate decision occurs amid Middle East war pressures causing global inflationary concerns. The Federal Reserve maintained US interest rates at 3.5% to 3.75% per year, the lowest level since September 2022. Jerome Powell will leave his position as Fed Chair on May 15. Three regional Federal Reserve presidents dissented from the Federal Open Market Committee regarding interest rate decisions. Chairman Powell reinforced the importance of Federal Reserve independence during his comments. The members also changed the description of inflation from 'slightly elevated' to 'elevated'.

Chairman Powell reinforced the importance of Federal Reserve independence during his comments. The members also changed the description of inflation from 'slightly elevated' to 'elevated'. Market analysts suggest this shift, combined with rising oil prices, may lead to a period of observation regarding interest rate cuts. The decision-making process is expected to be complex due to internal disagreements and the impact of CPI data. This decision follows the regulator's previous two meetings where rates were also held unchanged.
