Federal Reserve Bank of Walter offered two key considerations for monetary policy: initial conditions and forward guidance determine the transmission effect.
According to Odaily Odaily, Federal Reserve Bank of Walter Waller offered two points of consideration regarding the monetary policy transmission mechanism, emphasizing that policy effectiveness depends on initial conditions and the way forward guidance is used: First, "initial conditions are crucial," meaning monetary policy assessments should be based on current economic conditions, not historical averages. Second, regarding the role of forward guidance, he believes that while forward guidance can accelerate policy transmission in certain situations by influencing market expectations and changing financial conditions in advance, if it is too rigid or lacks flexibility, it may weaken policy effectiveness or even delay necessary policy adjustments. Waller emphasized that when multiple economic scenarios exist, the “average path” cannot be simply used as a basis for policy guidance, and policymaking needs to maintain adaptability and flexibility to different scenarios.

Opinion: Warsh should publicly resist Trump's pressure on the Federal Reserve and uphold the central bank's independence.
According to Mars Finance, on July 6th, Bloomberg columnist Jonathan Levin published an article stating that US President Trump and his allies are continuously pushing to influence Federal Reserve decisions through personnel changes, including attempting to replace Fed Governor Lisa Cook and interfering in the selection of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta president, in order to expand the influence of White House supporters on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). Levin believes that Kevin Warsh, considered a leading candidate for the next Fed chair, should publicly oppose White House interference, support Jerome Powell and Cook to complete their terms, and demand that the White House withdraw from the selection process for regional Fed presidents; otherwise, his future credibility in leading the Fed and his influence within the committee will be weakened. The Fed's independence is key to maintaining stable inflation expectations and the credibility of monetary policy; continued political interference could damage the stability of the US macroeconomy.
