Former United States Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen indicated that a single interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve remains a possibility this year, despite global economic pressures stemming from the conflict involving Iran. Speaking at the HSBC HOLDINGS PLC Global Investment Summit in Hong Kong, Yellen noted that while short-term inflation expectations have seen a slight uptick, policymakers are likely to remain data-dependent and open-minded regarding future adjustments.
