Dow Jones| Nasdaq | US Stock Market Today | Live: Fed's Cook: supply shocks have had persistent effects
Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook said on Thursday that recent supply shocks have had surprisingly persistent effects and become more salient for policy.
"Our conventional view used to be that we would look through the supply shocks because tighter monetary policy is not going to have an effect on oil prices, not going to have an effect on a war, but it could slow down employment and output outcomes that we would be more concerned about," Cook said in conversation with New York Fed President John Williams at an event at the regional Fed bank.

Bond yields fell on Thursday, after the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield earlier hit its highest level since 2002. Yields initially hit fresh highs after the data, which showed that US manufacturing activity was little changed in September, with prices for inputs surging amid strong demand.

Dow Jones| Nasdaq | US Stock Market Today | Live: US housing agency internal watchdog warns budget cut will stymie its work
The US Federal Housing Finance Agency's internal watchdog warned lawmakers that it will have to cut most staff and will not be able to do its job of policing misconduct, after the housing regulator slashed its budget.
The FHFA, which oversees mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, on Wednesday cut the Office of Inspector General funding, saying it was aiming to bring it more in line with that of its peers. OIGs are nonpartisan offices housed within agencies to root out financial waste and misconduct.
The budget cut comes after a tumultuous time at the historically low-profile agency that plays an integral role in the overall housing market. FHFA Director Bill Pulte has used the agency to target President Donald Trump's perceived foes. Pulte last year ousted the Acting IG and drove out hundreds of employees at the regulator.
