First, the slightly dovish New York Fed President Williams said in an interview last night that interest rates may need to be kept at a depressed level for several years to slow inflation. . At its meeting last week, the FOMC decided to raise interest rates by 0.25 points, setting the target range for the policy rate to 4.5% to 4.75%, but the market consensus is that 5.00% to 5.25% (twice at 0.25% each) is expected to be the final destination. was However, the employment data for January, which was announced on the 3rd of last week, greatly exceeded expectations, raising concerns that interest rate hikes will continue beyond expectations.
Williams, who is also a voting member of this year’s FOMC, said in an interview last night that 0.25 percentage points could be a good rate hike going forward, and that the pace of further rate hikes would depend on future data. The January 1st Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is scheduled to be announced on the 14th of next week, will be a point of interest.
On the other hand, hawkish Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said yesterday’s hawkish stance was followed by an easing of inflationary pressures, adding: There is not yet much evidence that it is having an impact and more action will be needed to restore equilibrium in the labor market. He said a recession was “undesirable, but we still have work to do to keep inflation under control.” It seems that it is becoming increasingly difficult for the market to predict how the Fed will achieve a soft landing.

In addition, Chinese IT giant Alibaba announced on the 8th that it will enter the AI chatbot field, and that it is developing an artificial intelligence tool like ChatGPT and conducting internal tests.
