Long Way For Restoring Price Stability
Powell further said it would take substantially more evidence to give comfort that inflation is actually declining. He added that there is a long way to go in restoring price stability. Despite the tighter policy and slower growth over the past year, Powell said, there are still no signs of lowering inflation. “We have not seen clear progress on slowing inflation, he said during the окуя. Powell said the full effects of our rate increases have been yet to be felt.
“History cautions against prematurely loosening policy. We will stay the course until the job is done. Inflation remains far too high. The time for moderating hike pace may come as soon as December.”

The Fed chair also stressed on the need for raising interest rates to levels to bring inflation to 2%. Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency prices rose in response to Powell’s comments. In the last one hour, Bitcoin (BTC) price rose 0.71% while that of Ethereum (ETH) rose 0.84%, according to price tracking platform CoinMarketCap.
