Comments by Federal Reserve Board member Waller
- I fully support the statement that maybe we should think about lowering interest rates at the next meeting.
- Customs duties will not cause constant inflation.
- Customs duties will be a one-time factor.
- The Fed should not wait for the collapse of the labor market to lower interest rates.
- The labor market is strong, but he began to notice a rise in unemployment among recent graduates.
- The Fed stopped for six months waiting for an inflationary shock that has not yet happened.
- The Fed has room to cut interest rates, then it can see what will happen with inflation.
- The Federal Reserve is in a position to cut interest rates early, possibly in July.
- Tariffs will not be imposed in full, and a 10% tariff on all imports will not have a significant impact on overall inflation.
- I'm not sure if the commission will agree with this.
