[Federal Reserve Governor Waller: Hopes to Continue Rate Cuts, But Should Remain Cautious] BlockBeats News, October 10, Federal Reserve Governor Waller stated that the job market may have turned negative in recent months, and the labor market is now his biggest concern. Waller said: 'Job growth may have been negative in the past few months. The labor market is very weak, and this is the key point of policy and the situation we need to understand.' The September non-farm payroll report, originally scheduled for release last week, was delayed due to the government shutdown. Waller, appointed by U.S. President Trump in 2020 as a Federal Reserve Governor, is currently a leading candidate to succeed Powell as Federal Reserve Chair, whose term will expire next May. Waller noted that his interview process is progressing smoothly, focusing on serious economic issues 'without any political factors.' Waller also stated that he hopes to continue rate cuts but emphasized that policymakers should remain cautious. (Jin10)
