According to a report by Jin Shi, the Federal Reserve's Kashkari stated that there is currently little evidence to suggest that economic recession forces are accumulating or that inflation may unexpectedly rise. He pointed out that although the Federal Reserve's policy remains tight, there is uncertainty about the extent of future tightening. Kashkari emphasized that the Federal Reserve's interest rate path will depend on upcoming data and expects the policy rate to be 4.4% by the end of 2024 and 3.4% by the end of 2025. He also stated that a 50 basis point interest rate cut is the correct decision to reflect the progress of inflation and the slowdown in the labor market.
