Fed’s Bostic indicates he may favor a single rate reduction this year.

Sure! Here’s the revised content with external promotional calls-to-action removed or rephrased:

<p>Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic told CNBC on Monday that he currently prefers only one rate cut this year as the central bank tries to balance potential upward pressures on inflation with concerns about a recession. The Federal Reserve released projections in March that pointed toward two quarter-point rate reductions in 2025. However, Bostic mentioned that the tariffs have been larger than the central bank expected at the start of the year.</p>

<p>"For me right now, I'm expecting it's going to take a bit longer for that to sort out. ... I'm leaning much more into one cut this year, because I think it will take time, and then we'll sort of have to see," Bostic said during the interview.</p>

<p>The Fed has a dual mandate to support maximum employment and stable prices. Concerns about inflation resurfaced last week when a consumer sentiment survey indicated that Americans are worried about the potential of tariffs to drive inflation higher. When asked about which side of the mandate he is more concerned about, Bostic focused on the potential rise in prices.</p>

<p>"I worry a lot about the inflation side, and mainly because we're seeing expectations move in a troublesome way. ... That will make our job harder," he said.</p>

<p>Bostic is not currently a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee, which sets interest rate policy. The tariff landscape has evolved several times since President Donald Trump took office in January. The president unveiled tariffs on nearly every trading partner on April 2, before announcing a 90-day pause that set the levy on most countries at 10%. The U.S. has also reached a separate 90-day truce with China, though tariffs remain higher than they were prior to Trump’s administration.</p>

<p>Bostic noted that even the reduced tariffs are "definitely economically significant."</p>
