$Powell(POWL)$ It is important

$Powell(POWL)$ It is important that Chair Powell holds the line, despite the almost weekly Presidential gaslighting, like when he called him Mr Too Late and a stiff. Without a neutral Fed, the dollar will diminish negating any fiscal benefit from the tarrifs. I suspect that the tarrifs are a lot more to do with the USA not becoming the worlds doormat and the continuation of US hegemony than any short term fiscal benefit.

Powell's Statements on Inflation, Tariffs, Labor Market, and Current Policy Stance

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell discussed various aspects of inflation expectations, highlighting that most long-term measures align with the 2% inflation target. He noted a recent increase in near-term inflation expectations, attributing it to tariffs. Powell emphasized the importance of preventing one-time price increases from leading to sustained inflation and expressed satisfaction with favorable inflation readings over the past three months. Additionally, Powell addressed the uncertainty surrounding the effects of tariffs on inflation, mentioning the potential burden on end consumers and the need for confidence in inflation reduction. He also discussed the impact of the labor market on the economy, emphasizing the need to maintain interest rates given current labor market conditions and expected inflation. Powell emphasized the current policy stance as being well-positioned to respond promptly to any necessary actions, highlighting the importance of waiting to gather more information before considering policy adjustments.

The level of job creation has slowed, but so has the number of workers coming into the labor market. &#34;The U.S. economy has defied all kinds of forecasts that it will weaken.&#34; It&#39;s harder to find a job, but few people are being laid off, he added.3:17 PM ET: From a geopolitical, trade and immigration standpoint, it&#39;s a &#34;time of real change,&#34; but it doesn&#39;t change how the Fed does monetary policy, he said.3:15 PM ET: Generally, geopolitical shocks to energy prices doesn&#39;t persist for long, Powell said. The U.S. is less reliant on oil from the Middle East than it was in the 1970s and 80s, he said.3:11 PM ET: &#34;Having really good data about the economy is a public good,&#34; he said. &#34;It&#39;s a real benefit to the public.&#34; Powell would want the U.S. to keep investing in the data it collects for the good of the general public. He said the Fed can do its job with the data it currently gets.3:07 PM ET: &#34;We&#39;re going to find 10% of employees who can do something else&#34; over about two years, Powell said, in the Fed&#39;s effort to be a good steward of public resources. &#34;This is something you do very carefully, thoughtfully, with a lot of planning, and you do it over a period of time. The Fed is effectively wiping out 10 years of headcount growth,&#34; he said. It won&#39;t affect mission-critical functions.3:04 PM ET: &#34;Monetary policy has to be forward-looking,&#34; he said. &#34;The labor market is not crying out for a rate cut.&#34;3:01 PM ET: Fed policy is &#34;modestly restrictive,&#34; and needs to be kept there to bring inflation all the way down to the Fed&#39;s 2% goal, Powell said.2:58 PM ET: The Fed will evaluate its communications and its Summary of Economic Projections in its five-year framework review. The Fed will only implement changes that have very broad support, he said. Still, he thinks the central bank&#39;s communications are well-received, overall.2:57 PM ET: Asked about the impact of the administration&#39;s stricter immigration policy, Powell said that with less immigration, the labor supply will diminish.2:55 PM ET: &#34;Everyone wants a good, strong economy... The economy has been resilient. That&#39;s what matters — that&#39;s all that matters,&#34; he said when asked about insults that President Donald Trump has lobbed at him and the Fed.2:53 PM ET: &#34;We expect a meaningful amount of inflation from tariffs in coming months,&#34; Powell said. That&#39;s why the FOMC hasn&#39;t moved policy to a more neutral stance.2:51 PM ET: &#34;We have a healthy diversity of opinions,&#34; but there was &#34;strong support&#34; for the Fed&#39;s rate decision today.2:49 PM ET: &#34;We feel like we&#39;re going to learn a great deal more&#34; about the effects of tariffs over the summer, he said. &#34;We need to see actual data to make better decisions.&#34;2:47 PM ET: No one is holding these rate paths &#34;with great conviction,&#34; Powell said, citing the level of uncertainty in the economy.2:46 PM ET: One could argue the labor market has seen &#34;a slow, continued cooling,&#34; but it&#39;s still relatively healthy, he said.2:44 PM ET: Tariff uncertainty peaked in April and has come down since then, Powell said. However, uncertainty on the economic outlook is still elevated.Updated at 2:41 PM ET: The magnitude and duration of the effects of tariffs on prices are still &#34;highly uncertain,&#34; he said.
