  • Federal Reserve Governor Bowman: If inflation continues to decline, we will support interest rate cuts.

Fed director Bowman said that she still believes there is upward inflation risk, but lowering interest rates gradually would be appropriate if price growth continues to slow down. Bowman believes that there has been "further progress in reducing inflation" in recent months, but there is still upward risk due to "geopolitical tensions, additional fiscal stimulus, and increased housing demand due to immigration." In addition, she said that the labor market continued to loosen, with signs that the labor market is tending towards a better balance.

  • The number of non-farm employment in the United States for the year may be significantly revised down by millions, and the degree of overestimation of employment may be the largest in 15 years.

A heavyweight revision due to be released on Wednesday could mean that the US government's statistical department has severely overestimated the number of domestic employees, and the degree of overestimation may be the largest in 15 years. This will cause concern that the Fed's interest rate reduction action is seriously lagging behind in response to the situation, as the labor market is not as resilient as the previous data indicated. The media pointed out that if the number of employees is revised down by more than 0.501 million, it will be the largest downward adjustment in 15 years. The revision will cause concern that the Fed's interest rate reduction action is seriously lagging behind in response to the situation, and may affect the tone of Powell's speech at the Jackson Hole meeting on Friday.
