EURUSD - Predicted October 20
Chairman of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) Jerome Powell said that inflation has cooled down, but the agency is still determined to bring back the 2% target.
In a speech on October 19 in New York, Jerome Powell admitted that tightening policies had brought inflation back under control, but emphasized that the Fed still needed to be cautious in pursuing its goal.
"Inflation is still too high. A few months of good data is just the beginning to give us confidence that inflation is returning to target. But we still don't know how long these good numbers will last, or Where will inflation be in the coming quarters?" he said. He affirmed that Fed officials "unanimously committed to bringing inflation to 2%".
This speech raises questions about the Fed's upcoming policy after a series of consecutive interest rate increases. The Fed has raised interest rates 11 times since March 2022, to the current 5.25%. This is a 22-year high.
