Title US Federal Reserve Chair Holds Off on Interest Rate Tweaks No Rush to Adjust Policy

The US Federal Reserve chair, Jerome Powell, has signaled that there is no urgency to adjust interest rate policy, citing the country's resilient economic growth and strong labor market.

At a congressional hearing, Powell emphasized the need for caution in navigating the delicate balance between inflation control and economic growth. He noted that reducing policy restraint too quickly or aggressively could hinder progress on inflation, while reducing it too slowly or minimally could unduly weaken economic activity and employment.

The Fed's short-term federal funds rate influences borrowing costs for consumers and businesses, affecting the cost of everything from mortgages to car loans. Last year, policymakers reduced the number of rate cuts they expect this year, citing concerns about trade uncertainty following President Donald Trump's election victory. As a result, some analysts now predict only one or two rate cuts this year.

Futures traders currently assign a probability of just over 55% that the Fed will make no more than one quarter-point cut this year, according to data from CME Group. Financial markets overwhelmingly expect no change to interest rates at the Fed's next rate decision in March.

In addition to his comments on interest rate policy, Powell also expressed concerns about the lack of regulatory oversight following the White House's decision to pause all non-essential work at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). The CFPB was created in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis and serves as a watchdog over various US consumer issues, including mortgages, credit cards, and debt collection.

On Monday, Russell Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, told staff that the CFPB would temporarily shutter its headquarters and pause all work. Employees were instructed not to perform any work tasks unless authorized by Vought in writing.

As the Fed continues to navigate the complex landscape of interest rate policy, one thing is clear the country's economic growth and labor market resilience have earned a reprieve for now.
