Odaily Planet Daily reports that Federal Reserve Chairman Bostic stated that a December rate cut is not a given. Speaking at the Dallas Fed meeting about the monetary policy outlook, he emphasized: "I want to reiterate that every meeting is a live decision-making process; we neither pre-determine a course nor deviate from the principle of data dependence."
Bostic specifically pointed out that although the market has strong expectations for a rate cut at the end of the year, it is wise for Federal Reserve Chairman Powell to clearly state after this week's policy meeting that a December rate cut is not a certainty. He stated, "The dot plot figures indicate differing opinions, but we shouldn't overinterpret them. We will rely on the data to ensure appropriate decision-making." (Jinshi)
