Rate decisions, inflation and Fed independence drive the discussion

Shows discuss whether persistent inflation and economic data will bring further Fed rate increases, with expectations ranging from likely hikes to reduced October odds.[1][2][3]

Equity Mates says Michael Barr indicated further increases may be needed, while The Compound and Friends describes a hike as likely to remove expectations of later hikes.[1][2]

WSJ's Take On the Week says October hike expectations have fallen as data and a senior Fed official tempered them, while rising yields may already be slowing the economy.[3]

Bloomberg Daybreak reports Kevin Hassett called for former Fed Chair Jay Powell to leave the board, citing an internal report's management-failure findings and arguing for Fed independence.[4]

Receipts with Catherine Rampell discusses concern that President Trump could fire Lisa Cook or Michael Barr, arguing that reduced access to cheap borrowing would be dangerous for the United States.[5]

Other shows connect Fed policy to housing, mortgage costs and broader criticism, including claims that quantitative easing is counterfeit and that elevated rates are pressuring home buyers.[6][7][8]
