US Economic Data Surprises: Implications for Federal Reserve

Reported 10 days ago

Recent economic data indicates a stronger than anticipated rise in the Producer Price Index (PPI), sparking discussions among economists about its implications for the Federal Reserve. Chief economist Stephanie Roth noted that while the October PPI increased by 0.2% month-over-month and 2.4% year-over-year, the Fed may still consider interest rate cuts in December. However, future cuts might occur at a slower pace, potentially leading to three cuts in 2025 as the Fed observes the impact of proposed tariffs from President-elect Donald Trump.
