[Federal Reserve Chairman Waller: Will not predict future rate decisions, did not disclose whether rate hikes will continue in October] Jin10 News, October 16 – Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Waller stated on Friday that he would not make early judgments on rate decisions and did not disclose whether the Fed would continue raising rates at the monetary policy meeting on October 27-28 or maintain short-term rates as the market expects. Speaking at the 2026 IMF and World Bank Annual Meetings held in Bangkok, Waller said that the Fed's rate hike in September had 'made it very clear that we will achieve price stability and have withdrawn a certain degree of monetary policy easing.' He emphasized, 'I will not predict the decisions of any meeting. I believe it is not appropriate to reveal in advance what actions might be taken at the remaining meetings this year.'
