It's over. Firstly, Waller's speech was too fast, completely different from Powell. Generally speaking, Powell can respond to reporters' questions for an hour, but this time Waller finished in half an hour and hardly gave accurate answers, just glossing over with one or two sentences.
In my personal evaluation, Waller's remarks were quite hawkish, believing that as long as inflation is not contained, the Federal Reserve may need to take measures to ensure inflation returns to 2%. In other words, to let inflation quickly return to 2%, the Federal Reserve will not hesitate to continue raising interest rates.
About three reporters mentioned that raising interest rates would not change the situation in Hormuz, which is what I wanted to ask the most, but Waller did not give a very clear answer. Of course, Waller himself knows that raising interest rates cannot solve the energy supply problem, but the Federal Reserve's attitude must be clear: use interest rate hikes to curb rising prices.
Currently, Waller or the Federal Reserve believes that the U.S. economy and employment are stable and growing, so raising interest rates will not affect the rise in the U.S. unemployment rate. However, he also mentioned that raising interest rates will inevitably bring about certain "collateral damage," but the Federal Reserve should not be responsible for the collateral damage.
In summary, Waller's view is that if inflation continues to rise, the Federal Reserve will continue to raise interest rates, regardless of what Trump says.
