class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Federal Reserve Governor Waller has indicated a potential shift towards a more accommodative monetary policy, advocating for a <strong>rate cut at the upcoming December meeting<\/strong>. Waller expressed concerns over the <strong>labor market&#39;s weakness<\/strong>, stating that most private-sector data suggests a soft job market and that he does not anticipate a turnaround in the next few weeks. He also noted that the September jobs number is likely to be revised down, with its concentrated nature not being a positive sign.<\/p>\n<p>Despite a recent uptick, Waller believes <strong>inflation is set to decline<\/strong>, estimating ex-tariff inflation to be around <strong>2.4% or 2.5%<\/strong>. He highlighted that available data since the last Fed meeting suggests no significant change, and inflation is not a major problem given the weak labor market. Looking ahead, Waller expects a more <em>meeting-by-meeting approach<\/em> by January, acknowledging that the month will be tricky with a flood of new data influencing future rate decisions. He also emphasized the importance of press conferences for clarity and transparency, though their organization might see changes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Geopolitical_Developments_Ukraine_Peace_Talks_and_Regional_Diplomacy\"><\/span>Geopolitical Developments: Ukraine Peace Talks and Regional Diplomacy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ukraine&#39;s delegation for peace plan talks is reportedly <strong>heading home from Geneva<\/strong>, signaling a significant moment in the ongoing diplomatic efforts. This development follows recent discussions between Russian President <strong>Vladimir Putin<\/strong> and Turkish President <strong>Recep Tayyip Erdogan<\/strong>, where they reportedly addressed the Ukraine peace plan.<\/p>\n<p>President Erdogan has communicated his readiness to <em>mediate<\/em> in the conflict, according to reports.
