Kansas City Fed President Jeff Schmid has made wide-ranging remarks:,
- Fed’s Schmid says inflation too high, worrying that price rises becoming more widespread
- Fed’s Schmid: Hard to know if stablecoin is anything different from Venmo on steroids
and he’s still going, more:
- Seeing a pause in labor conditions
- Businesses are trying to delay hiring to get through the current situation
- Hard to understand how the US dollar would not be the world’s reserve currency for a long, long time
–
The Federal Reserve has, as part of its mandate, a responsibility to move the economy towards full employment. The labor market has stumbled, hence Schmid’s concern. the ‘current situation’ is a diplomatic way to refer to the volatile, ill-informed, inept policies coming out of the White House.
