Jerome Powell Addresses Economic Outlook Outside Federal Reserve Headquarters

Washington, D.C. — Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell delivered a public statement today in front of the Federal Reserve building, addressing current economic conditions and the central bank’s ongoing policy stance. Standing beneath the iconic neoclassical façade engraved with “FEDERAL RESERVE,” Powell appeared focused and resolute as he spoke into a microphone positioned before him.

Dressed in a navy blue suit, white shirt, and light blue tie, Powell emphasized the Fed’s commitment to managing inflation and supporting sustainable economic growth. His remarks come amid heightened market attention to interest rate decisions and broader monetary policy signals.

The backdrop of the Federal Reserve’s marble columns and engraved entablature added symbolic weight to Powell’s message, reinforcing the institution’s role in shaping the U.S. financial landscape.

Further details of Powell’s statement are expected to be released in the Fed’s official transcript later today.
