Top International News

US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has acknowledged the recent strength of the US economy caught central bank policymakers by surprise. Following the bank’s September rate-decision meeting, at which it opted to keep rates steady, Chair Powell noted that “If the economy comes in stronger than expected … we’ll have to do more in terms of monetary policy.” Is the bank signaling that its stance will remain hawkish for longer?
