Federal Reserve Board Member to Miss Upcoming Policy Meeting

According to BlockBeats, Federal Reserve Board member Adriana Kugler will not attend this week's policy meeting due to personal reasons, reducing the number of voters for the interest rate decision to 11. Despite potential dissenting votes from board members Waller and Bowman in favor of a rate cut, the committee still holds a sufficient majority to maintain the current interest rates. While board member positions have no substitutes, the president's position can be replaced.
