Powell Likely to Stress Fed's Inflation Fight Far from Over

Inflation is cooling, and parts of the economy appear to be weakening. But Chair Jerome Powell is likely Wednesday to underscore that the Federal Reserve’s primary focus remains the need to fight surging prices with still-higher interest rates.

Powell’s tough message will likely emerge at a news conference after the Fed’s policy committee announces its latest action.
