Former US Treasury Secretary Summers: Fed Policy Is "Too Loose," Inflation Remains the Top Issue
Jinse Finance reported that former U.S. Treasury Secretary Summers stated that the Federal Reserve's policy is leaning towards being "too loose," and emphasized that the greatest risk facing the U.S. economy comes from inflation rather than the job market. Summers said, "If I were in Chairman Powell's position, my biggest concern would definitely be focused on inflation." Speaking about the Fed's rate cut measures, Summers said, "I don't think they are doing this under political pressure, but I believe that at a time like this, the Fed must 'go all out' (to maintain its anti-inflation stance). And I'm not sure they have reached the level of 'all out' that I would expect."
