Fed’s Denial of Data Revisions Sparks Debate on Economic Policy Risks for 2025 | Booth

The Federal Reserve ended 2024 with its third rate cut of the year, totaling 100 basis points, while projecting inflation at 2.5% through 2025. Despite Chair Jerome Powell’s claim that the U.S. economy is “in a good place,” questions arise about cracks in the Fed’s narrative and the risks of a policy misstep in the year ahead.

In this must-watch interview with Kitco News, Danielle DiMartino Booth, CEO & Chief Strategist at QI Research, dissects the Fed’s cautious outlook, inflation risks, and labor market pressures. Booth explores the impact of private sector job losses, the challenges of quantitative tightening, and the implications for U.S. debt.

As markets prepare for 2025, Booth’s sharp analysis sheds light on what to expect from the Fed and how economic uncertainty could shape the financial landscape. Tune in for exclusive insights into the central bank’s next moves and their potential impact on markets.
