    Everything you were taught to fear about deflation protects the people collecting from you. The forbidden question: why shouldn't progress show up in your pocket?

  8. RE: mstdn.social/@dalfen/116767034

    To me, this was the biggest tell of where #Warsh wants the #Fed to go – all mixed up with #business & #finance, which I think could spell disaster.

    Not being dramatic, but the Fed's focus will be marred – supporting the financial sector & big business, not simply ensuring price/job stability. It'll have every incentive to make it appear that #inflation & #prices are under control, not truly control them.

    #Warsh repeatedly stated that the #Fed will "deliver" on price stability. He didn't talk much about the job part of the mandate & said:

    "I don't believe we have a cruel choice (b/t higher #inflation & #jobs)... What I believe is if we do our job, we can make strong #growth, low #prices, and strong #employment neutrally compatible."

    #Warsh also talked about the makeup of the Federal Reserve Board & wants the "best minds" for task forces, and that those groups that will be information recipients "feel they have some equities in it too." 👀

    He focused A LOT on task forces, indicating to me that the Fed might put people on those task forces that are OUTSIDE of the #Fed (central bank) – perhaps those prominent in #finance & #business 👀👀

    Warsh said the Fed should focus on "real-time data" like CEOs of companies do.

    He also said "financial market prices are probably the most important source of information," and he wants the Fed to watch that data to make its decisions.

  32. @InsurgoFormica
    Well, I think we’re going to have to disagree on that because I think that the Board is captivated by the ‘job market’ figures as unemployment is deemed too high for #NeoLiberal #MonetaryPolicy (paraphrasing from Greg Jericho’s observations of the RBA). And, as I tooted before, the current economic data do not yet reflect any impact of the previous #CashRate rise.

    But, I guess time will tell (6 months at least by my reckoning) if the RBA made the right or wrong decision this time around.
    No worries dude, we have a different opinion that’s all.

  33. “14.30 AEST
    Of course the #RBA did… against the better judgement of economists who are not died-in-the-wool #NeoLiberals. This rise will do nothing to stop inflation due to Stupid #tRump and his mate #Netanyahu military fling. The underlying inflation does not warrant this (according to Greg Jerocho — one of the more sensible economist driven by facts rather than mad theories). Further more, the lasat #CashRate rise has yet to show its effect on the economic numbers FFS.

    “RBA raises interest rates for third time in 2026
    reported by Luca Ittimani

    The Reserve Bank has increased its official interest rate to 4.35%, as prices rise at their fastest pace since 2023.

    The RBA’s board today hiked rates for a third consecutive meeting in 2026 after increases in February and March. Rates are now back where they were at the start of 2025, with each of that year’s three rate cuts now unwound.

    Today’s hike was widely expected, picked by most economists surveyed by Bloomberg. But financial markets had not fully priced in an increase, with some thinking the RBA might wait and see what the federal government does with its budget next week.” (Source: The Guardian Live)
