[Analyst: Powell's Forward Guidance May Be Limited, Greater Attention Should Be Paid to His Future Moves]
Odaily Planet Daily News – As the market widely expects the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates unchanged at this meeting, some analysts suggest that greater attention should be paid to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's future trajectory: Will he remain in his position or leave the Fed when his term as chair ends on May 15? Analysts stated, 'Whatever his plans may be, we believe that given Kevin Warsh is likely to be confirmed as his successor, Powell's forward guidance on policy during his final press conference as chair will be very limited.' He added, 'We think Powell will adopt a more reflective tone when reviewing his tenure—he leaves behind an economy in good shape, but inflation remains some distance from the 2% target. With peace talks between Iran and the U.S. at a standstill, and the long-term blockade of the Strait of Hormuz seemingly becoming the new norm, we believe the FOMC's resolve to keep rates unchanged has been further strengthened.'
