Federal Reserve Chairman Waller stated at a press conference that the situation of U.S. inflation being above the committee's target has persisted for nearly six years, and this FOMC discussion primarily focused on price stability.
He pointed out that in recent weeks, energy and related prices have risen again, and the Federal Reserve must prevent relative price changes in specific areas from spreading throughout the economy and ensure that inflation expectations remain anchored.
