Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh said at a Sept. 16 press conference, local time, that it is not easy to judge how restrictive monetary policy really is. Warsh said it is difficult to describe current financial conditions as restrictive, adding that, based on what Warsh heard in a roundtable discussion, colleagues also found it hard to characterize them that way. At the same time, Warsh said the latest rate hike amounted to withdrawing one layer of accommodation to better align financial and credit conditions with the ultimate policy goal.

He said the work completed today, along with efforts that will continue going forward, is aimed at securing price stability and sustaining growth, adding that he does not believe achieving that goal requires damaging the labor market.

Bitcoin is undervalued, with a fair value of about $105,000 under Metcalfe's Law, Morgan Creek Capital Management CEO Mark Yusko said in an interview with Bitcoin Magazine. Yusko said Bitcoin was trading at about $75,000 and called it a good time to buy. He added that Bitcoin is the best way to protect personal assets, while long-term corporate investment is not a good option. Over the past 30 years, 85% of companies have disappeared, Yusko said, adding that what people really need is an asset that preserves value. Historically, gold played that role for 5,000 years, and investors now have both gold and Bitcoin, he said.
