  "account": "New York Fed President John Williams stated on Friday that the US economy is \"remarkably resilient\" and the job market is stable, per Reuters. Tariffs' impact has largely subsided, energy prices are affecting airfares as anticipated, and the influence of AI on prices remains modest, such as in chip costs. Williams emphasized the urgency of bringing inflation back down to the 2% target in a timely fashion, acknowledging that monetary policy often takes a year or two to manifest. He also noted that inflation expectations are well-grounded, and wage growth aligns with the goal. In a slightly more hawkish stance than usual, reflecting a 6/10 score on the FXS Speechtracker versus a baseline of 5.4/10, Williams stressed the importance of amassing more data before making decisions. This cautious approach, driven by the belief that inflation has been \"too high for too long,\" points to a preference for maintaining a restrictive policy environment and remaining data-dependent. The remark to \"accumulate more information\" suggests a wait-and-see attitude rather than an imminent shift towards easing, which could curb immediate downside for the US Dollar, even with some caveats regarding transitory price factors. For traders, the focus remains on the upcoming US Nonfarm Payrolls report, which is expected to reveal a 65K job gain, contrasting with September's sharp decline.",
