Minutes from Fed's May meeting to show members leaning hawkish: BofA
Investing.com -- The hawkish tone is likely to be the big takeaway from the minutes of the Federal Reserve's meeting due next week, with debate among members around whether the current level of interest rates likely to be a hot topic.
“I think it’s unlikely that the next policy rate move will be a hike. I’d say it’s unlikely,” Powell said at the FOMC press conference on May 1. Fed Gov. Bowman said on Friday that she would be willing to back a hike if disinflation stalls, or reverses, added that she was monitoring data to evaluate whether policy was sufficiently restrictive.
While acknowledging that the Fed isn't yet there on its goal to bring inflation down to 2%, Atlantic Fed President Raphael Bostic said Thursday that his current outlook is for an ongoing fall in inflation, which would make appropriate to cut rates later in the year, but cautioned that nothing is locked in.
