Fed's Musalem: Further interest rate cuts not advisable


  • Rates are now at neutral rate
  • Economy doesn’t need stimulus
  • Expects economy to continue growing above trend, boosted by fiscal policy
  • Expects inflation to decline to 2% but sees risk it could remain above
  • Further cuts only needed if jobs market were to decay or inflation falls

Hawkish stuff from Musalem and the market thinks Warsh is a hawk deep down. Are we slowly going to price out the Fed easing that’s in the market this year?
