  • Baseline is no rate cuts until the second half of 2024 at earliest
  • Inflation is unacceptably high but there has been significant progress
  • Data consistent with 'orderly slowdown'
  • We are in a phase where there is some risk of overtightening
  • says he would have 'grudgingly' voted for a rate hike in July
  • If progress on inflation stalls, I would be comfortable contemplating a rate hike

Bostic is a voter next year. The dovish tone isn't new.
