Nick Timiraos: Waller's position turned soft, and the interest rate increase in September depends on August inflation

On 3 September, a Wall Street Journal journalist, Nick Timiraos, stated that the overall position of Fed Governor Waller had not fundamentally changed since July, but that there had been a shift in policy orientation: From the concern and the tendency to tighten monetary policy at that time to today ' s cautious optimism and the tendency to keep interest rates unchanged, there has been a shift from a cautious optimism to the current one. The final decision will depend on August inflation data. His response to the policy meeting of 15 to 16 September was well established: inflation continued to move towards the 2 per cent target, with interest rates maintained; if inflation data were high in August, interest rates would be considered for an increase.
