"The govt might like them to cut rates, but they can't..."
I have to agree with you @Ewebute.
Going back to our own Reserve Bank "no Govt intervention" to change a Reserve rate decision in 80 years".
In the US I think the initial advice about interest rates comes from the economists who work for the Fed & Regional Fed's.
There is a team of 400 economists at the Fed reserve in NYC.
The entry level is set very high. A PhD in Economics is required.
There is also some of the 12 regional Fed banks who are on the board. So 12 people on the board incl the chair who have to be convinced.
It was good to see Jay Powell even stood up to Trump (who appointed him) & he let the data influence the decisions on interest rates.
