Meanwhile, Ether on the Ethereum blockchain was changing hands at $3,069, off 3%, while meme coin dogecoin was trading at around 30 cents, down 5.1%.\nCrypto has gained traction among institutional investors in 2021 but is still viewed as a speculative and highly risky trade compared with traditional markets.\nKashkari also offered some of his views on monetary policy plans, noting that he still sees a \"a lot of slack\" in the U.S. labor market, and suggesting that he might need a couple of more strong jobs reports before he is inclined to support a push to scale back the central bank's monthly purchases of $120 billion in Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities.\nThe Minneapolis Fed president's comments come amid growing talk about the timing of pulling back the Fed's COVID-era accommodations and eventually raising interest rates as the economy attempts a recovery from the pandemic.\nOn Tuesday , the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 index snapped five-session win streaks, with some blaming the day's declines at least partly on growing concerns about a rollback of easy-money policies.\nFor his part, Kashkari said that it would be reasonable to start reducing bond-buying by the end of 2021, if the job market cooperates.\nIn July, the U.S. created a robust 943,000 jobs , in what some viewed as a sign that the economic recovery was gaining some steam, despite the latest assault from the delta variant of COVID-19.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":false,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":833256277,"gmtCreate":1629246653699,"gmtModify":1676529976755,"author":{"id":"3572078772819787","authorId":"3572078772819787","name":"Winstonlou","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/872d534505dadd9f2bcdebec4b5df367","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3572078772819787","authorIdStr":"3572078772819787"},"htmlText":"Like
