Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell stated that financial markets are functioning and orderly despite the current environment of high uncertainty. He emphasized that markets are processing ongoing developments as expected, including the bond market, which is handling historically unique conditions in an orderly manner. Powell noted that while the environment is difficult, persistent high uncertainty would weigh on investment and reduce the attractiveness of the U.S. market if risks were structurally higher. His remarks suggest the Fed does not currently see a need to intervene in response to recent volatility in stocks or bonds.
