最新报道:Stephen Miran, President Trump's nominee for the Federal Reserve Board, has reaffirmed his commitment to preserving the Fed's independence in monetary policy, emphasizing its importance for achieving price stability and maximum employment. Despite facing skepticism due to his dual role as chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, Miran stated his decisions would be based on macroeconomic analysis rather than political directives. His nomination, set to conclude in January 2026, comes amid broader debates over the Fed's independence, with Trump advocating for significant rate cuts and attempting to influence its leadership. Over 600 economists have warned that weakening the Fed's independence could lead to policy uncertainty and higher borrowing costs. The Fed's next policy meeting on September 17 is widely expected to result in a rate cut, though analysts believe institutional safeguards will temper political influence.
