Powell Signals Patience: Fed Holds Rates, Awaits Key Data

Share on TelegramShare on TwitterShare on FacebookShare on LinkedinShare on Whatsapp

Key Takeaways

  1. Fed maintains interest rates, awaiting more data on inflation trends.
  2. U.S. inflation rate slows to 2.6%, nearing the Fed’s 2% target.
  3. Fed’s future rate cuts hinge on upcoming employment and inflation data.

What Happened?

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell announced that the U.S. is on a “disinflationary path” but emphasized the need for more data before considering rate cuts. In May, inflation did not rise, and the 12-month rate of price increases fell to 2.6%, edging closer to the Fed’s 2% target.

Powell, speaking at a monetary policy conference in Portugal, stressed the importance of ensuring these readings accurately reflect underlying inflation before loosening policy. The Fed has kept its benchmark interest rate steady at 5.25%-5.5% since last July.

Why It Matters?

For investors, Powell’s cautious stance signals a period of steady interest rates, reducing immediate market volatility. However, the Fed’s reluctance to cut rates until inflation sustainably trends toward 2% underscores a balanced approach, considering both inflation and employment goals.

With the U.S. unemployment rate remaining at or below 4% for over two years, the Fed has room to be patient. Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee highlighted “warning signs” of a weakening real economy, stressing the need to avoid overly tight monetary policy.

What’s Next?

Expect the Fed’s decision-making to hinge on upcoming employment and inflation reports, including June’s job data and the July 11 consumer price index. Powell anticipates inflation to fall between 2% and 2.5% within a year, a “great outcome” if achieved. U.S. short-term interest-rate futures suggest potential rate cuts in September and December, but these will depend on the economic data. Investors should watch the Fed’s next policy meeting on July 30-31 for further signals.
