White House’s Brainard: Fed rate cut sent a clear signal that inflation has come back down
White House National Economic Council Director Lael Brainard said on Thursday that the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) decision on Wednesday to cut rates for the first time in four years sent a "clear signal that inflation has come back down.”
Further comments
Inflation was now at the same level seen in the month before the pandemic began.
The cut in interest rates would also save the average new car buyer nearly $1,100 over the life of their loan.
Further work was needed to drive down housing costs, support childcare needs and sustain the gains achieved for working class families.
Meanwhile, another official said that “the White House is monitoring geopolitical risks, including escalating tensions in the Middle East, but sees no significant risks to the broader economic outlook.”
