Good news on inflation: a buyers' strike --- "potentially thousands of seats empty six weeks before the tournament begins...cheapest option was..$1,120. A better seat would set him back more than $4,000. Those...were the numbers set by FIFA itself." ⚽️

Thank you @adamtaggart for a great post-FOMC discussion. x.com/AxelMerk/statu…
Post FOMC analysis with @adamtaggart - Fed independence/ Powell staying on / Warsh Fed / implications for markets / gold x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
.@mckonomy: aren't there some that say we might need to hike even absent of the war in Iran?
Powell: the dissents were on the downside. It's a form of forward guidance - you want to make it in a way that is sustained. We didn't feel like we need to be in a hurry
Powell: if Warsh revises the Fed's communication strategy, it's a completely appropriate thing
Powell does not give convincing case why easing bias stayed. In fact, in his explainer, he really argued it shouldn't. No wonder there were 3 dissents to ax it. x.com/AxelMerk/statu…
Q by @NickTimiraos: why is the easing bias still right? What would need to happen?
Powell: good question.
