Warsh’s appointment could be a major step toward #Trump asserting more control over the #FederalReserve, one of the few remaining #independent federal agencies. While all presidents influence Fed policy through appointments, Trump’s rhetorical attacks on the #CentralBank have raised concerns about its status as an independent institution.

Meanwhile, #inflation "remains somewhat elevated," the #CentralBank said, while the job market has "shown some signs of stabilization."

Though the #Fed noted that "job gains have remained low," it also removed language from its prior statement saying that downside risks to employment had risen - an indication policymakers as a group are becoming less worried about a rapid downturn in the labor market.

The #US #FederalReserve has held #InterestRates steady.

It cited still-elevated #inflation alongside solid economic growth, & it gave little indication in its latest policy statement of when borrowing costs might fall again.

"Economic activity has been expanding at a solid pace," #Fed policymakers said in the statement after voting 10-2 to hold the US #CentralBank's benchmark interest rate in the 3.50%-3.75% range following a two-day meeting.

It’s only a question of time until Russia #collapses. The deadly #war in #Ukraine breaks Russia / #Putin his neck. So far, Russia has been able thanks to its #CentralBank to cover the cost of the war. Their national fund is declining first, and their #gold reserves are dwindling. It’s a question of time until #Russia vanish from the world map. Am I joking? Absolutely not! #China and other countries will eat it up. Will #Siberia become #American? Instead of #Greenland? #Trump what do you think?

Big shock of 2026: #MarkCarney declaring the end of the old order.

#Carney is the archetypal #neoliberal #globalist, the purest #DavosMan. Former governor of not one #G7 #centralBank, but two.

Now the expensively-suited smooth technocrat PM of #Canada has declared the end of the system that created him and which he sustained. The man who made #TonyBlair look radical now makes #ZackPolanski look cautious. And European leaders look lost.

This #TimeMag cover is #satire. But the shift seems real

#SCOTUS seems inclined to reject Trump’s effort to immediately oust #FederalReserve governor #LisaCook after hearing oral arguments Wednesday.

the #US #economy & the #independence of the nation’s #CentralBank are at stake in the case.

#Trump has been highly critical of what he sees as the slow pace of #InterestRate reductions by the #Fed under the leadership of Chair #JeromePowell [because he wants it to appear as if the economy is doing well, even if it isn’t].
