美聯儲主席沃什：我們聽到了家庭和企業沒有耐心的聲音。

Economist Claudia Sahm said the FOMC post-meeting statement is likely to signal imminent rate hikes unless inf makes more substantive progress. After the June meeting the FOMC issued a markedly shorter statement that dropped boilerplate and contained only the line "C.BANK will achieve price stability." Sahm expects the next statement to say that, despite recent improvement, inf remains above C.BANK's 2% target—partly due to supply shocks from the Middle East conflict and tariffs and strong AI-driven demand—and that if the labor market stays firm while inf remains elevated, appropriate tightening may be required soon to restore price stability. She also expects employment to be described as "broadly consistent with maximum employment."

At his June meeting Warsh said he might only hold post-meeting press conferences when there was specific news. At his second meeting he said he will continue to hold press conferences at least through the remainder of this year. Any continuation beyond that will depend on the Federal Reserve communications working group's assessment.
