🔴 The Fed is still worried about inflation… but the market sees something different Despite today’s weak jobs data, several Federal Reserve officials came out with statements confirming that the inflation battle is not over yet. ➡️ Barkin (Fed official): He confirmed that if inflation remains above the target level, the Fed may be forced to tighten monetary policy. ➡️ Lisa Cook (Fed Governor): She warned that persistent inflation could push the central bank to raise interest rates if necessary. ➡️ Barkin also emphasized that inflation must return to the 2% target, while acknowledging that the labor market has started to show signs of weaker balance. 🟡 On the other hand… Kevin Hassett, economic advisor to President Trump, confirmed that Trump regularly speaks with Fed Chair Kevin Warsh about the economy, but does not interfere with interest rate decisions. 📊 But why didn’t gold fall? Because the market gave more weight to today’s data: 🔻 Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP): -23K jobs 🔻 Wage growth slowed to: 0.1% These figures strengthened expectations that the economy is losing momentum, making further rate hikes more difficult even with ongoing inflation risks. 🦍 Gorilla’s View: So far… actions are stronger than words. The Fed is talking about inflation, but the market is trading based on actual data — and today’s data clearly leaned toward weakening the dollar and supporting gold. #Gold #NFP #Dollar #FederalReserve #Trading
