Federal Reserve (Fed) Bank of New York President, as well as Vice Fed Chair, John Williams crossed wires via Reuters late Wednesday when he unveiled support for slowing down on the rate hike trajectory. The policymaker also showed his data dependency for future Fed decisions.
The voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) also unveiled his support for no rate change in June monetary policy meeting but marked surprise from the stable natural rate level.
It should be noted that the Fed Vice Chair Williams quoted remarkably “well-anchored” inflation expectations but cited that fate of inflation is up to the Fed.
Even so, Fed’s Williams marked the need for the US central bank to balance the demand and supply flow, indirectly suggesting higher rates ahead.
