  "account": "Federal Reserve Vice Chair of Supervision Michelle Bowman emphasized that inflation remains the central bank's top priority, but expects price pressures to ease next year. In remarks to the Council on Foreign Relations in Washington, D.C., Bowman observed persistent inflation pressures while noting a firming labor market. She stated that there is still work to do to bring inflation closer to the 2% target. The core personal consumption expenditures price index is projected to increase by 3.3% in October, driven by high energy costs and artificial intelligence demand. Bowman highlighted that the lack of inflation progress is not due to labor market concerns, which have improved without overheating. She forecasted that core PCE inflation will move closer to the 2% target next year as AI expansion and Middle East conflict pressures diminish, with no new inflationary pressures emerging from employment conditions. Bowman cautioned about potential economic risks stemming from tightening financial conditions, such as declining stock prices, rising bond yields, and a stronger dollar. The economy has shown strength this year, but the benefits of additional policy tightening need careful consideration against the costs for interest-rate-sensitive sectors. Bowman noted that time will reveal more about the durability of AI-related demand momentum and the evolution of geopolitical risks, which could be crucial in setting the policy stance in the coming months. She did not recommend any interest rate increases in her remarks.",
