Federal Reser2026-10-16 03:42:35Fed Chair Warsh says not to prejudge meeting outcomeAccording to BlockBeats, Federal Reserve Chair Warsh said on Oct. 16 that the Fed has made clear it will deliver price stability. He also said he does not support making premature judgments about the outcome of a policy meeting. Warsh repeated that market participants and observers should not prejudge the result of the meeting. The remarks were presented as a brief policy-related update, with no additional details on a specific decision, timetable, or policy change disclosed in the source item. The statement centered on two points: the Fed’s stated commitment to price stability and Warsh’s objection to drawing conclusions before the meeting outcome is known.20
Policy2026-08-28 14:49:08Kevin Warsh's First Jackson Hole Speech: Inflation Target 'Clear and Fixed,' Prices Top PriorityFederal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh used his first Jackson Hole speech on Aug. 28 to reaffirm the central bank's commitment to pulling inflation back to its 2% target, calling the goal "clear and fixed" and insisting that price stability will not happen on its own. Warsh said the Fed must be convinced that underlying inflation is moving toward target at a pace that is "clear and fast enough"; otherwise, "we have more work to do." He pointed to the summer's better-than-expected PCE and CPI readings but said they have not convinced him that the underlying trend has meaningfully improved. With inflation still above 2%, he said the Fed's "primary focus right now should be on prices." The chair also pushed back on the idea that financial conditions are restrictive, describing them as not restrictive and calling interest rates the Fed's "primary tool." He argued that forward guidance should play a limited role, and that policymakers should not base forward-looking policy on stale or inaccurate data. At the same time, he said the odds of materially stronger economic growth are rising. On market expectations, Warsh said market pricing reflects confidence that the Fed will deliver price stability, adding, "I can assure you, the market assessment is right." He closed by stressing that price stability is the Fed's responsibility and will not be achieved automatically.910
Fed2026-08-28 14:01:01Fed Chair Warsh: Must Be Confident Inflation Moving Toward TargetFederal Reserve Chair Warsh said the central bank must be confident that underlying inflation is moving toward its target — otherwise, more work remains. He also said it is hard to describe financial conditions as restrictive, and that inflation data do not show a significant improvement in the trend. The Fed's primary focus at this point, he said, should be prices. The remarks were reported by Jinshi.900
Federal Reser2026-08-28 14:19:07Fed Chair Warsh: Inflation Trend Unproven, Price Stability Is the JobFederal Reserve Chair Warsh says that even though PCE and CPI data released this summer came in better than expected, it has not convinced him that the underlying trend in inflation has meaningfully improved. He notes that market pricing reflects confidence the Fed will achieve price stability, and assures that market judgment is correct. Warsh adds that with inflation above 2%, the Fed's primary focus should be on prices. His closely watched remarks coincide with criticism of his streamlined communication style, which economists and market participants believe lacks clarity on the near-term outlook for the economy and monetary policy. The speech appears to answer those concerns, as Warsh offers a more detailed than usual account of his views on the economy and the Fed's priorities under his leadership. He emphasizes that price stability will not occur automatically and inflation may not return on its own; achieving price stability is the Fed's responsibility. It is expected that Warsh will not take questions from central bank officials and economists at the event.850

He assured markets that the Fed will achieve price stability, stressing that price stability should be the central bank's primary focus while inflation stays above 2%. Warsh's remarks come as critics question his streamlined communication strategy, which economists and market participants say has left the near-term economic and monetary policy outlook unclear. In a more detailed than usual explanation, Warsh emphasized the Fed's responsibility to deliver price stability. He is not expected to take questions from central bank officials and economists at the event.920

Grayscale2026-07-07 02:16:46Grayscale Says Strategy’s Partial Bitcoin Sale May Ease Financing Risk and Support Price StabilityGrayscale Research said Strategy’s sale of part of its Bitcoin holdings last week could help reduce financing risk and contribute to greater price stability for BTC. The comment focuses on the link between Strategy’s large Bitcoin position and its funding structure, suggesting that a measured reduction in holdings may lower leverage-related pressure and ease market concerns about refinancing and balance-sheet risk. Based on the information currently available, no further details were disclosed regarding the size of the sale, execution range, or any follow-up disposal plan. For the market, the main questions are whether Strategy’s financing risk has been reduced and whether that change could have a stabilizing effect on Bitcoin’s price action.1250
