How Does the Shutdown Impact Fed Policy and the Dollar?

The transcript discusses the challenges faced by the Federal Reserve (Fed) due to prolonged economic conditions and its reliance on data that may not be available. The US government shutdown is seen as supportive of the dollar, despite its negative impact on the risk environment. The Fed's current stance is to remain sidelined, responding to global risks and allowing other central banks like the ECB and PBOC to adopt more dovish policies. The Fed's actions are influenced by global economic conditions, including the stock market and China's outlook, and are constrained by the Triffin dilemma, which affects the US dollar and global economies.
