Executive summary

Available sources do not mention any exchange between “either office” nor any subsequent official statements or apologies from either office; the supplied documents are routine releases from the Federal Reserve, Treasury press pages and federal filings without reference to an inter-office confrontation or apology (not found in current reporting). The Treasury press releases page lists dated statements but the index provided contains no item tied to an apology or post‑exchange statement [1]. Federal Reserve release pages shown are schedule and rates publications and implementation notes; none record an apology or response to an “exchange” described in your query [2] [3] [4].

1. What the supplied sources actually cover — not an apology

The documents in the search results are administrative and policy publications: Federal Reserve H.10 and G.5 foreign‑exchange and index release pages and calendar items [2] [3] [5], a Fed implementation note on a rate decision [4], Treasury press‑release index pages [1], and several Federal Register filings for market infrastructure and exchange fee changes [6] [7] [8]. None of these items describe or document any interpersonal or inter‑office “exchange” that produced an official apology or statement; that absence is explicit in the content of the cited pages [2] [1] [3] [4].

2. Treasury’s public communications channel — what’s available in these records

The Treasury’s public record is a press‑release listing and statement archive; the snippet captured in the result shows dated Secretary statements and remarks for early December 2025 [1]. That structure is where an apology or formal response from the Treasury would normally appear, but the provided index and snippets make no reference to an apology following an inter‑office exchange [1]. Therefore, based on the available Treasury pages in the search results, there is no documented statement or apology tied to the unspecified exchange [1].

3. Federal Reserve publications reviewed — no admission or apology found

The Federal Reserve results are routine statistical releases (H.10, G.5) and an implementation note on policy actions such as a rate cut and balance‑sheet reinvestment guidance [2] [3] [4]. These pages are procedural and data‑oriented; the implementation note records policy decisions like a 1/4 percentage‑point decrease in the primary credit rate, not personnel or interagency rhetoric [4]. The Fed material in the search results does not contain any official apology or reactive statement about an exchange between offices [2] [3] [4].

4. Other federal records here are procedural rule filings, not conflict statements

Several Federal Register notices in the results concern rule filings and fee changes at market infrastructure entities (Options Clearing Corporation, Cboe EDGX, IEX/CAT matters) and are administrative in nature [6] [7] [8]. Those filings formally notify regulators and market participants about fee or rule changes; they are not forums for interagency apologies or post‑exchange reconciliations and contain no such content in the excerpts provided [6] [7] [8].

5. What we can and cannot conclude from these sources

We can conclude, based solely on the supplied search results, that no official statements or apologies relating to an unspecified “exchange” appear in these documents; the Treasury and Fed pages shown contain other routine content but no apology [1] [2] [4]. We cannot conclude that no apology was ever issued outside these specific pages — available sources do not mention statements from other outlets, social media posts, press conferences, or non‑indexed statements by officials, and those possibilities are not covered by the current reporting (not found in current reporting).

6. How to resolve the gap — where to look next

To determine definitively whether either office issued statements or apologies after the exchange, check (a) the full Treasury press‑release archive and individual dated statements on the Treasury site beyond the index snippet [1], (b) the Federal Reserve news releases and speeches pages for contemporaneous remarks [2] [4], and (c) mainstream press coverage, agency Twitter/X feeds, and transcripts of congressional testimony for any reactive language — none of which appear in the supplied results (not found in current reporting).

Limitations: This analysis uses only the documents returned in your supplied search results and cites those items directly; if a statement or apology was published elsewhere or after the captured pages, it is not represented here (not found in current reporting).
