FED official Mary Daly said in her statements that the US economy is currently in “good shape” and monetary policy is “balanced”. Daly said that the impact of the customs duties on inflation, which have recently been on the agenda, does not seem to be as serious as first announced, and that the continuous decline in inflation is also a positive development. “The economic fundamentals are moving toward the possibility of a rate cut,” Daly said, but he said a rate cut could be more appropriate in the fall unless there is significant weakening in the labor market. The FED…
