x/federal-reserve-system
— 9h
The Federal Reserve’s Beige Book found rising energy, tariff, commodity and insurance costs intensifying price pressures across many districts, while employment was mostly unchanged and economic activity showed modest growth, with expectations leaning toward slight growth.
