Institución: La Reserva Federal es poco probable que aumente las tasas de interés, ya que podría dañar la economía

Golden Finance reports that on May 6th, SEI analyst Jim Smigiel stated in a report that, given that the Federal Reserve bears the dual mission of supporting full employment and stabilizing prices, a direct interest rate hike is unlikely, as raising rates could have potential negative impacts on the economy and even the labor market. Other global central banks (such as the European Central Bank) are not officially assigned a dual mandate, so they are more likely to focus heavily on price stability, making rate hikes in these regions more probable. However, it is expected that global central banks will follow the Fed’s lead to some extent, because significant deviations from the Fed’s interest rate path could destabilize exchange rates and capital markets in other regions.
