MNI TRANSCRIPT: Powell on Fed Reaction To Global Markets
WASHINGTON (MNI) - The following is the portion of a transcript from
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's press conference after the FOMC meeting
Wednesday:
Q: Trading since this statement was released shows that investors still
think another rate cut is coming this year. On their behalf, let me ask, what
is going to guide fed policy to either pull them towards where the dot plot
suggests no more moves this year or... keep them in place? Are you reacting to
data now? Are you reacting to your gut feeling about what trade tweaks might
mean? Should they just watch for J Powell's speeches to decide what's going to
happen going forward? What's The Fed's reaction function now?
A: Right... so... what we are looking for, through all of the data, all of
the events that are going on around the world, we'll be looking at, you know...
the evolving geopolitical events. We'll be looking at global growth, trade
policy uncertainty -- most importantly, looking at the performance of the U.S.
economy. We'll be looking for the things that are affecting the outlook for the
U.S. economy, particularly... the outlook as it relates to maximum employment
and stable prices. All of those things, in principle, can affect the
achievement of our goals.
It's an unusual situation, because... the U.S. economy, itself, the largest
part of it, the consumer part of it, is in strong shape. The manufacturing
part, less-so, but... overall, you see an economy that, I think, generally
forecasts show growth similar to our own forecasts coming at about 2%, which is
a good solid year.
The difference here, we have significant, really, risks to that outlook from
not just the geopolitical events, but also, from slowing global growth and trade
policy, certainly, we'll be looking at all of that and... also, financial market
conditions and how they are affecting the outlook.
I can't, it is a -- it's a challenging time, I admit it, but... we really
have to be open to all those things. We're not on a preset course, we're going
to be making decisions meeting by meeting as we see this and we'll try to be as
transparent as we can, as we go.
