The Future of the Fed at a Crossroads

The Future of the Fed at a Crossroads

The future of the Federal Reserve’s independence will come into clearer focus this week as the central bank will likely lower interest rates for the first time since last December, potentially pacing the way for more cuts this year as the labor market weakens and prices keep rising. But all eyes will be on who votes for a rate cut after the President fired Fed Governor Lisa Cook and appointed Stephan Miran, his former Chair of Economic Advisers. Claudia Sahm, a former Fed economist, helps us understand the importance of this week’s meeting, the future of the central bank, and the real health of the U.S. economy. The stock market might be at record highs, but the foundations of American capitalism are shaking. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
