Waller supports a quick rate cut, saying the U.S. economy is slowing and inflation pressures are manageable

最新报道：According to the news from Bijie.com, Christopher J. Waller, a member of the Federal Reserve Board, said in a speech on July 17, 2025 that he supports a 25 basis point cut in the federal funds rate at the next FOMC meeting. He believes that the growth rate of the US economy has slowed significantly, with real GDP growth of about 1% in the first half of 2025, far below the long-term potential growth rate, and consumer spending is weak and private sector employment is almost stagnant. He emphasized that the recent upward trend in inflation is mainly driven by tariffs, which is a one-time shock and is not expected to lead to rising inflation expectations or long-term inflationary pressures. Monetary policy should "see through" such shocks. He said that if economic and employment growth continue to be weak, it will support further interest rate cuts this year.
