According to Odaily, Chicago Fed President Goolsbee stated that the dissenting vote he cast this week was his first since joining the Federal Reserve in 2023, putting him on the same side as Kansas City Fed President Schmid. He voted against this week because he wants to wait for more economic data to determine whether the impact of tariffs on inflation is only temporary. In a statement released Friday, Goolsbee said, "Given that the inflation rate has been above our target for four and a half consecutive years, and that progress on inflation has stalled for several months, coupled with the fact that almost every businessperson and consumer we have recently contacted in our district lists prices as a primary concern, I feel that the more prudent approach is to wait for more information."

According to Odaily, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has issued an official warning stating that fraudsters have impersonated the HKMA's official website to lure the public to a site bearing the HKMA logo for central bank digital currency or cryptocurrency transactions. They further claim that account holders must pay relevant taxes before withdrawing funds from their accounts. The HKMA solemnly declares that this fake website has no connection with the HKMA, and it will never proactively contact citizens regarding any personal financial matters, nor will it request any form of transfer, payment, or account verification. The public is urged to stay vigilant and never click on unfamiliar website links. For unverified information, especially those involving financial investments, always remain calm and verify first—never transfer funds directly. The HKMA has reported the incident to the Hong Kong Police.
