While delivering his semi-annual monetary policy testimony to Congress, US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said that officials are wary of potential risks to the labour market from high borrowing costs as they seek more evidence inflation is slowing down. “Elevated inflation is not the only risk we face,” Powell said in prepared remarks before the Senate Banking Committee.

Powell was careful not to offer a timeline for interest-rate cuts, which investors are now betting will begin in September. The US central bank is weighing rate cuts after holding its benchmark at a more than two-decade high for nearly a year to curb inflation. While the labour market has primarily held up, a slowdown in jobs data has pressured Fed officials to begin easing policy.
