RSM Chief Economist Joseph Brusueras: Warsh delivered the right hawkish signals at the press conference and attempted to reinforce the Fed’s credibility in restoring price stability, while also enhancing his own credibility.U.S. stocks continued to decline after the Walsh press conference, with the S&P 500 falling 1%, its biggest drop since July 29, the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 1.65%, and the Nasdaq Composite down 0.6%.On September 17th, Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh declined to answer questions at a press conference regarding his interactions with US President Trump. Trump has been calling for lower interest rates in recent months. Warsh stated, "I have no comment on my discussions with the president." White House Council of Economic Advisers Chairman Christopher Phelan said on Tuesday that raising interest rates would be a "mistake."On September 17th, Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh stated that he would not disclose details of future interest rate decisions by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). He said, "I am not responsible for providing forward guidance. Our decision today (to raise interest rates) is a carefully considered, serious, and responsible one. We have been preparing for and thinking about this decision for the past 110 or 120 days." Warsh also stated that this decision was not market-driven. He said, "Our decision today is based on our assessment of the current situation, our judgment of the employment trend, and our assessment of the strength of the economy. Sometimes, the market tries to anticipate our decisions. I watch market prices to see what information the market is sending. But todays decision is our own."On September 17th, Warsh stated that while the Federal Reserve cannot prevent price shocks in commodities such as oil on its own, the central bank can use policy tools to prevent further spread of inflationary pressures. Warsh said, "We cannot influence the price of any single commodity, such as oil or groceries." However, he pointed out, "We can and will ensure that any changes in relative prices do not spread further, and do not have second- or third-order effects on the economy. Thats our responsibility, and thats what were doing." Warsh made these remarks as U.S. diesel prices hit a record high due to the Iran war.

Euro Region PMI Slows

In Euro Zone economic news, manufacturing growth in the area slowed last month as manufacturers faced supply shortages, high pricing, and a decline in demand, according to a study indicating that consumers shifted spending to tourism and recreation. In May, Euro Zone inflation reached an all-time high of 8.1%, according to a survey released earlier this week.

 

Chris Williamson, chief business economist at S&P Global, stated, "Euro area manufacturers continue to struggle against the headwinds of supply shortages, increasing inflationary pressures, and decreasing demand amid rising economic uncertainty."

Economic Weakness and Rising Inflation Pose a Major Problem for the ECB

The price movement implies that investors are concerned about inflation and slowing GDP, which might provide challenges for the European Central Bank (ECB) and its intentions to begin raising interest rates in July.

 

The ECB must boost interest rates in order to curb inflation. In addition, the measure might hinder the already declining economic expansion. If the ECB exerts excessive pressure, the Euro Zone economy might collapse excessively and too quickly, leading to a recession. This would make the Euro weaker.
