Fed's Daly: It's time to think about adjusting the interest rate

  • Comments from the SF Fed President
Mary Daly
  • The economy is in a good place
  • Jobs and growth solid
  • Inflation is easing
  • Mon pol is still restrictive
  • It's time to think about adjusting the interest rate
  • I see two cuts as likely outcome for the Fed this year
  • There is a large amount of uncertainty around the outlook
  • The economy is in a good place, monetary policy is still restrictive
  • Waiting for inflation to rise could leave Fed behind on cutting rates
  • Thinking about rate cuts during the fall

The bolded are a dovish signal. She's not a voter this year or next but she's certainly not politically angling in the way that Waller or Bowman are.

Update: She added the part about hiking in autumn, which stretches the timeline beyond September.
