Fed’s Kugler says it has become hard to judge underlying U.S. Growth

Governor Kugler noted the complexities in judging the U.S. Economy’s growth amid evolving trade policies and rapid changes in tariffs.

Recent agreements to pause tariffs between the U.S. And China have added uncertainty to growth and inflation forecasts, hindering economic analysis.

The Fed is likely to keep interest rates steady, estimating a range of 4.25% to 4.50% until more stable economic forecasts emerge.
