PANews reported on September 11th that the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose more than expected in August, with the annual rate of inflation increasing at its fastest pace in seven months. However, these figures are not expected to prevent the Federal Reserve from cutting interest rates next week due to a weak job market. Thursday's data showed that the CPI rose 0.4% in August, following a 0.2% increase in July. For the 12 months ending in August, the CPI rose 2.9%, the largest increase since January, following a 2.7% increase in July. Following recent bearish news on the job market, the CPI report could stoke concerns about stagflation. The impact of US President Trump's comprehensive tariffs will be gradual, but price increases are likely to accelerate in the coming months as businesses have now depleted pre-tariff inventories. Business surveys have been hinting at impending price increases for some time. Stephen Stanley, chief economist for US Capital Markets at Santander Bank, said: "There is a lot of evidence that more tariff-related inflation is coming, although it may take several months for the full transmission to occur."PANews reported on September 11th that the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose more than expected in August, with the annual rate of inflation increasing at its fastest pace in seven months.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC
The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening.

She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
