🚀 Fed Governor Milan: Policy Should Not Be Based on Short-Term Conflict Factors

Federal Reserve Governor Milan stated that the central bank should not formulate policies based on short-term factors related to conflicts involving the United States and Israel in Iran. According to Jin10, Milan emphasized the importance of gathering all relevant information before altering their perspective. He noted that it is premature to have a clear understanding of the situation over the next 12 months.

The conflict in the Middle East has led to a significant rise in oil prices, which could exert upward pressure on inflation and negatively impact economic growth and the labor market. Last week, the Federal Reserve decided to keep the benchmark interest rate unchanged for the second consecutive time. Policymakers acknowledged the increased economic uncertainty due to the escalating war situation, and Fed Chair Powell highlighted the need for more progress in reducing inflation.

Milan opposed this decision, favoring a 25 basis point rate cut. However, he conceded that if oil prices remain high, they could gradually affect other goods and services. Despite this, Milan maintained his pre-war expectation of four rate cuts this year.

🚀 Japan's Central Bank May Focus on Price Risks Amid Inflation Slowdown, ING Economist Says

Japan's central bank is likely to prioritize price risks over the recent slowdown in inflation, according to economists at ING. The initial results from wage negotiations are encouraging, and the ongoing Middle East conflict has had minimal impact so far. According to Jin10, the preliminary PMI figures have declined, reflecting recent oil supply shocks and a decrease in new orders, which raises concerns about the economic outlook. However, the overall data remains above 50, indicating that businesses view geopolitical risks as temporary. Persistent core inflation, PMI data, and wage negotiations increase the likelihood of an interest rate hike in April, although the exact timing remains uncertain. The situation in the Middle East will play a crucial role in the Bank of Japan's decision-making process. If the situation stabilizes without signs of production or consumption decline, the probability of an April rate hike will be higher.
