Analyst: Powell's statement leans towards a hawkish stance

ChainCatcher news, according to analyst Chris Anstey, Powell stated, "There are still many, many uncertainties to resolve. Yes, we are indeed getting more information continuously. But as it stands, we are not very close to the end of this process. Looking ahead, it feels like there are still many things that will happen." This statement leans towards a hawkish stance.

Federal Reserve Chairman Powell also mentioned that decisions cannot be made based on the June forecast (dot plot) in six weeks. His personal judgment is that (current policy) is in a moderately restrictive range, although (various parties) have a range of different estimates on this. (Jin Shi)
