NY Fed chief John Williams warns AI supply squeeze could persist beyond two years, hinting at a potential rate hike later this year.
New York Fed President John Williams reiterated concerns that the artificial‑intelligence supply squeeze may endure for more than two years, a view that could influence monetary policy decisions.
He also suggested that the Federal Reserve may need to raise interest rates again this year, a move that would affect borrowing costs for technology firms and other sectors sensitive to rate changes.
Investors may watch AI‑related stocks, broader equity indices, and rate‑sensitive sectors for signs of how the market reacts to these expectations.
