Miran, who was fast-tracked onto the Fed board and is on leave from the White House&#39;s Council of Economic Advisers, argued for a larger 50-basis-point reduction and signaled his readiness to dissent again if policy does not align with his views. He has warned that a strict focus on the inflation target could lead to &quot;over-managing economic policies&quot; and believes the central bank has &quot;overextended into many areas beyond its main goal.&quot; Miran&#39;s projections suggest a significantly more dovish path, implying an additional 125 basis points in cuts by year-end, contrasting sharply with the Fed&#39;s median forecast. He also asserted that the President has the right to express opinions on monetary policy.<\/p>\n<p>In the technology sector, <strong>Google (<a href=\"\/stock\/GOOG\">GOOG<\/a>, <a href=\"\/stock\/GOOGL\">GOOGL<\/a>)<\/strong> has officially launched its <strong>Gemini AI<\/strong> on <strong>TCL&#39;s QM9K Series<\/strong> smart TVs in the U.S., making these the first Google TV devices to feature the advanced AI assistant. This integration replaces the traditional Google Assistant, bringing enhanced capabilities such as content summaries, real-time translations, and personalized recommendations directly to the television experience. The rollout marks a significant step in embedding AI into consumer electronics, with Google planning to expand Gemini&#39;s accessibility to more devices, including the Google TV Streamer, Walmart&#39;s onn 4K Pro, and select Hisense and other TCL models, later this year. These new features, which were initially previewed at CES 2025, also include natural language search and smart home control, aiming for a more intuitive and hands-free user interaction.<\/p>\n<p>On the international economic front, Canadian Prime Minister <strong>Mark Carney<\/strong> has voiced concerns over fundamental global shifts impacting multilateral institutions and trade dynamics. He stated that the <strong>World Trade Organization (WTO)<\/strong> and the <strong>United Nations (UN)<\/strong> are becoming less effective in addressing contemporary global challenges. Carney highlighted a significant shift in U.S. policy, noting that the <strong>United States is increasingly adopting a transactional, bilateral trade strategy<\/strong>. This evolving landscape, according to Carney, means Canada can no longer rely on its most important trading partner as it once did. In response, Canada is exploring new avenues for international cooperation, including working with China on climate change initiatives and proposing that Canada could lead a global free trade coalition if the U.S. continues its shift away from multilateral leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran is advocating for
