This podcast discusses a blog that examines Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook's recent speech regarding the U.S. economy and its implications for the Seattle housing market (as of March 2025). Cook noted economic uncertainty despite cooling inflation and low unemployment, with consumer spending and business investment slowing. The Federal Reserve is holding interest rates steady, observing the potential impact of tariffs. For Seattle, the report suggests the housing market will likely remain stable due to its tech industry, particularly advancements in AI, though economic uncertainties could introduce some challenges for buyers, sellers, and investors.
