Fed's Goolsbee (2025 voter) says latest tariff threats could delay rate cuts, WSJ reports
- Latest tariff threats could spark fresh concerns about inflation, which might force the Fed to maintain its wait-and-see posture until the central bank gets more clarity.
- “I’m hopeful that when we go back and talk to [businesses] now, they don’t say, ‘Oh, this is putting us back to where we were on April 3,’” Goolsbee said. “But I don’t know, because this has just happened.”
- “I’m still pretty confident that the culture of the Fed is one that everyone takes the job seriously and recognizes how important independence is from political interference".
