The most recent statistics were praised by President Joe Biden as a “milestone in America’s comeback. “However, Sophie Lund-Yates, head equities analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown, cautioned that it might be challenging to bring the inflation rate back to the Fed’s target of 2% due to the robust rise in jobs.”The economy has plenty of excess energy that may need to be tamed by continued higher rates,” the report indicates, and the speaker added that some economists are now wagering that rate cuts won’t occur until 2025.

As higher US interest rates draw investors to the US and away from other nations, they have put pressure on economies all across the world.
