BlockBeats News, June 18th, DoubleLine Capital's CEO, widely known as the "New Bond King," Jeffrey Gundlach, stated on a CNBC program that the hawkish signal from the newly appointed Federal Reserve Chair, Kevin Warsh, was stronger than many investors had expected. This highlighted his commitment to restoring price stability and also indicated his lack of interest in loose monetary policy.

Gundlach remarked that Warsh's repeated emphasis on the price stability objective reduced the risk of the Federal Reserve pursuing overly accommodative policies that could reignite inflation. He stated that this reinforced the reasons for holding long-term U.S. government bonds. Warsh has essentially staked his reputation on inflation control, making the likelihood of a significant rate cut lower.

Current U.S. short-term interest rate futures reflect a higher probability of the Federal Reserve raising rates before September than choosing to keep rates unchanged.
