    Today\u2019s session on Wall Street is marked by selling pressure<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, with the most important US indices remaining in the red: the <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>S&P 500 is losing about 0.4%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, while the <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Nasdaq 100 is declining by nearly 1.5%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>.

      Fed representative Lorie Logan assessed that the US economy remains strong<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> and the labor market situation is stable, but <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>inflation is still not moving sustainably toward the 2% target<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>. In her view, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>moderately higher interest rates may be needed<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> to better balance risks, and a single, more favorable CPI reading is not a sufficient signal of a permanent cooling of price pressures.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      Retail sales in June rose by 0.2% month-on-month<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, in line with forecasts.

At the same time, the moderate growth in consumption shows that households remain cautious. For the Federal Reserve, this serves as an <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>argument for maintaining the current monetary policy<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, as the economy remains strong but shows no signs of overheating.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
