July 10, "Federal Reserve mouthpiece" Nick Timiraos latest article said that a debate brewing within the Federal Reserve on how to deal with the risks posed by Trumps tariffs may end a period of relative unity, and officials may disagree on whether new cost growth is a reason to keep interest rates high. In recent weeks, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell has hinted that the threshold for rate cuts may be lower than it looked this spring, but no rate cuts are expected this month. Instead, Powell described a "middle path": if inflation data is lower than expected or the job market is slightly weak, this may be enough for the Federal Reserve to start cutting interest rates by the end of summer. This standard is lower than the previous more stringent threshold-at that time, against the backdrop of more massive tariff increases triggering violent inflation expectations, the Federal Reserve may require more obvious signs of economic deterioration before considering rate cuts. The tariff increase announced by Trump in April exceeded expectations, sparking concerns about stagflation with weakening economic growth and rising prices, disrupting the Federal Reserves plan to resume rate cuts this year. But since then, two developments have driven a possible shift. First, Trump has reduced some of the most extreme tariff increases; second, tariff-related consumer price increases have not yet become a reality. This provides a key test of competing theories about whether tariffs are inflationary and has sparked internal disagreements over how to manage forecast errors.Delin Holdings (01709.HK) rose more than 60%.
