The Federal Reserve's policy direction continues to be a focal point. Currently, American leaders openly state that the current Federal Reserve Chair either lacks the ability or has integrity issues, raising questions about their management decisions. Meanwhile, Congress has stated that if the involved individuals are innocent, a thorough investigation will reveal the truth, and they urge judicial authorities to advance the investigation—behind this series of maneuvers is a re-evaluation of the independence of the Federal Reserve, policy transparency, and even the overall trust in the financial system. Market participants need to closely monitor how this political and economic confrontation unfolds.
