☆ Elizabeth Warren blasts the 'egregious and embarrassing ethics breaches' among top Fed officials who she says have engaged in 'improper' stock trading for over a year

Sen. Elizabeth Warren slammed "improper stock trading" among Fed officials. On Monday, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren sent a letter to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell regarding what she called "egregious and embarrassing ethics breaches by top officials at the Federal Reserve System," referring to reports of "improper" stock trading by officials behind closed doors. The scandals predate the October findings — in September 2021, for example, Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan was found to have made multiple stock trades in 2020, along with Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren. He declined to comment on any pending investigations of Fed officials. Along with looking into potential ethics breaches within the Fed, Warren and other Democratic lawmakers have also raised concerns with the tactics the Fed is using to fight inflation.
☆ St. Louis Fed to 'think differently' about private events after Citi forum

WASHINGTON, Oct 20 (Reuters) - The St. Louis Federal Reserve said it would "think differently" about appearances by its president James Bullard at non-public events after news reports of his attendance at a private policy forum last week sponsored by Citigroup. The New York Times first reported Bullard's appearance at the event, which it noted was unpaid but might conflict with Fed communications rules that discourage Fed involvement in events that offer a "prestige advantage" to profit-making enterprises. "Jim Bullard works hard to maintain the spirit of transparency and active communications to make his views widely known," the St. Louis Fed said in a statement. Still, the St. Louis Fed posted a transcript of his remarks to the Citi Macro Forum on its website and added that "we are listening to the commentary around this and will think differently about this in the future." During the appearance, which lasted an hour according to an agenda of the event released by the St. Louis Fed on Thursday, Bullard delivered several minutes of opening remarks and then fielded about a dozen questions from the audience.

WASHINGTON, Oct 20 (Reuters) - The St. Louis Federal Reserve said it would "think differently" about appearances by its president James Bullard at closed press events after news reports of his attendance at a private policy forum last week sponsored by Citigroup, a major bank under Fed regulation.

Starting this week, Petree will work his full-time job during the week and as a part-time cashier at Lowe's on the weekends. Nearly 70% of Americans are looking for extra work to combat inflation, according to more than 1,000 full-time workers, part-time workers and unemployed workers surveyed by Bluecrew, a workforce-as-a-service platform, in September. In many cases, those looking for work already log 40 hours during the week and are picking up extra shifts or gig work on nights and weekends, Laurinas says. Nearly 5% of employed Americans hold multiple jobs, according to data from the St. Louis Federal Reserve, including 440,000 people who hold two full-time jobs — a record high.

Mortgage rates have been as high as 18% in the 1980s, which is significantly higher than current rates. Just take a look at this graph from the St. Louis Federal Reserve to see how today's mortgage rates measure up against the ones in the past. For example, the 2008 recession saw a 30-year mortgage peak of 6.63%. The current 30-year rate, as of this writing, is at 5.30% but we'll see how recession fears impact this. SoFi members can also get $500 off on their mortgage loans.
