🚀 Fed Official Highlights Potential Inflation Data Distortion
#Fed #Inflation #DataDistortion #GovernmentShutdown #CPI #InterestRates #NeutralRate #EconomicGrowth #BureauOfLaborStatistics
According to PANews, Federal Reserve official Hamarck has indicated that the positive inflation data for November might be skewed due to data collection disruptions caused by the government shutdown in October and early November. This distortion could have led to an underestimation of the 12-month price growth. While the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a 2.7% year-over-year increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November, adjustments for measurement difficulties suggest the figure might be closer to the generally expected 2.9% or 3.0%.
Hamarck also expressed concerns about interest rate cuts, emphasizing her belief that the neutral interest rate is higher than commonly perceived. She noted that the economy has the potential to maintain robust growth into the next year. Although the neutral rate cannot be directly observed, it can be inferred from the economic conditions.#Fed #Inflation #DataDistortion #GovernmentShutdown #CPI #InterestRates #NeutralRate #EconomicGrowth #BureauOfLaborStatistics

According to PANews, Louis Navellier, Chief Investment Officer at Navellier & Associates, stated in a report that the Federal Reserve is expected to reduce interest rates four times by 2026 to reach a neutral rate level. He highlighted that weakening housing prices are intensifying deflation concerns, which the Federal Reserve needs to address. Navellier remarked, "Moreover, with the U.S. economy not generating many jobs, there is no reason for the Federal Reserve to maintain a tight stance." He also mentioned that if deflationary pressures increase further, additional rate cuts might be necessary.#FederalReserve #InterestRates #RateCuts #Deflation #USEconomy #HousingPrices #NeutralRate #LouisNavellier #PANews
🚀 Rick Rieder Considered as Potential Successor to Fed Chair Powell
#RickRieder #FedChair #JeromePowell #BlackRock #FederalReserve #InterestRates #USEconomy #TrumpMeeting #FixedIncome #InterestRateCut #MonetaryPolicy #USFederalReserve #NeutralRate
According to Odaily, Rick Rieder, BlackRock's Global Chief Investment Officer of Fixed Income, is a potential successor to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. He is scheduled to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday for an interview. Amidst this development, Rieder reiterated his support for reducing the U.S. benchmark interest rate to 3%, which would mark the lowest level in over three years.
In a CNBC interview aired on Monday, Rieder expressed his long-standing view that interest rates should be lowered to 3%. He reaffirmed his stance, suggesting that such a move would reduce borrowing costs by at least 50 basis points from the current level.
Following a 25 basis point cut by Federal Reserve officials in December, the current federal funds rate target range stands at 3.5% to 3.75%.
"I believe the Federal Reserve has some room for policy maneuvering," Rieder stated. "My position has been clear for many months. The Fed needs to lower rates, and I think it doesn't need to be by much, just down to 3%—a level closer to the neutral rate." The neutral rate is a theoretical borrowing cost that neither stimulates nor restricts economic growth, allowing the U.S. economy to operate smoothly.#RickRieder #FedChair #JeromePowell #BlackRock #FederalReserve #InterestRates #USEconomy #TrumpMeeting #FixedIncome #InterestRateCut #MonetaryPolicy #USFederalReserve #NeutralRate

🚀 Economists Skeptical of AI's Impact on Interest Rates
#Economists #AI #InterestRates #Survey #PCEInflation #FederalReserve #NeutralRate #FOMC #ProductivityGrowth #BlockBeats #ClarkCenter #GlobalMarkets #UniversityOfChicago #USPolitics
A recent survey conducted by the Clark Center for Global Markets at the University of Chicago has revealed that nearly 60% of economists disagree with the notion that AI advancements will lead to interest rate cuts. According to BlockBeats, the survey, which included 45 economists, suggests that the impact of AI technology on prices and borrowing costs over the next two years is expected to be minimal, with projected decreases in PCE inflation and neutral interest rates likely to be less than 0.2 percentage points.
Approximately one-third of respondents believe that the AI boom could even compel the Federal Reserve to slightly increase the so-called 'neutral rate,' a level at which borrowing costs neither stimulate nor hinder demand.
The findings indicate that gaining support from other members of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) for AI-induced productivity growth could be challenging for Walsh. This may complicate efforts to implement interest rate cuts at the scale desired by U.S. President Donald Trump before the midterm elections in November.#Economists #AI #InterestRates #Survey #PCEInflation #FederalReserve #NeutralRate #FOMC #ProductivityGrowth #BlockBeats #ClarkCenter #GlobalMarkets #UniversityOfChicago #USPolitics
