Kashkari Urges Patience as Tariff Impact Remains Unclear

Federal Reserve official Neel Kashkari has emphasized the need for cautiousness in light of ongoing uncertainty regarding the impact of tariffs on inflation. In an interview with Odaily, he argued that arguments against dismissing the effects of tariffs are stronger and should be considered when determining policy decisions. This stance reinforces the Federal Reserve’s current approach of maintaining stable interest rates until more definitive information is available regarding the inflationary pressures resulting from tariff policies and their subsequent economic implications.
