US Economy on Solid Ground, Says Fed Governor

Adriana Kugler, a Federal Reserve Governor, expressed confidence in the robustness of the United States economy during her speech at the 2025 Miami Economic Forum. Kugler noted that, based on current data and estimates, the GDP growth for the first quarter of the year is expected to be strong.

Inflation and Policy Uncertainties Loom

Despite the positive outlook, Kugler highlighted concerns over the slow and uneven progress on inflation, which remains high. She also pointed out the significant uncertainties surrounding the economic impacts of proposed new policies. The Federal Reserve, according to Kugler, will closely monitor these developments before making any further decisions.
