According to CoinVoice, the latest minutes from the Fed's July meeting indicate that concerns among some Fed officials regarding the economic slowdown have intensified. The minutes mentioned: "Several participants indicated that they expect economic activity to remain sluggish in the second half of this year." The minutes also added: "Regarding the household sector, several participants observed that the slowdown in real income growth may be restraining the growth of consumer spending." It is noteworthy that these views were expressed a few days before the July employment report was released, which revised down the estimated new jobs for May and June by 258,000. Therefore, since the July meeting, concerns about economic slowdown triggered by a weak labor market may have further intensified for some officials.
