Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group's Head of US Macro Strategy, George Goncalves, stated that as new Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Walsh hosts his first monetary policy meeting, the drop in oil prices will create favorable conditions for a rise in the fixed income market. “We are about to enter a summer for the bond market,” Goncalves said Wednesday on Bloomberg TV’s Surveillance. “Overall, there is not really an inflation problem right now.” Goncalves noted that as crude oil prices have fallen over the past week, investors are reassessing the global interest rate outlook. The market expects that the US and Iran are about to sign an agreement, and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz will bring an end to the previous supply crisis. He said that even with approximately 1 billion barrels of crude oil unable to enter the market due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices have still “managed to remain within a controllable range.”

Daly says that AI is driving up chip demand and inflationary pressures may persist longer

San Francisco Federal Reserve President Mary Daly stated that the chip demand driven by the AI boom may spread from high-end AI chips to a broader semiconductor market. Some companies have already begun securing supplies of memory chips in advance and even redesigning products to reduce chip usage. She believes that the inflationary pressure brought on by AI may not be a one-off shock and that easing this pressure could take longer than the one-to-three-year period typically assumed by the Federal Reserve. Daly expressed her full support for the Fed’s rate hike in September, adding that whether further action is needed will depend on whether shocks such as AI developments, tariffs, and higher energy prices due to Middle East conflicts subside. If these factors persist or overlap for an extended period, further tightening may be required; however, if these shocks are only temporary, additional rate hikes may not be necessary.
