This move carries significant weight for markets watching how monetary policy will evolve—particularly regarding employment metrics and inflation targeting. The positioning signals where the new administration plans to concentrate its economic agenda going forward.

The labor market takes precedence over inflation targets, and it's really uncertain how long this trap of an incentive framework can hold.

Is the labor market about to crash? The Fed's move has some substance to it.

ngl Waller's performance this time is indeed paving the way for the new government. The Fed Chair position is so crucial that it still depends on employment data...

Data shows that the labor force data has indeed been overestimated this time, although the Fed's policy shift often takes 3-6 months to show the real effects.

Is the labor market again the focus? I've seen this trick too many times, and in the end, it's inflation that suffers.
