Atlanta Federal Reserve President Urges Patience On Rate Cuts Amid Inflation Risks

Reuters reports the U.S. Federal Reserve does not need to urgently cut interest rates due to the robust state of the economy and job market, according to Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic. Despite anticipating two quarter-point rate cuts by year-end, Bostic emphasized the need for careful management of economic strength to prevent inflation. Bostic said that the Fed is walking ā€œfine lineā€ to ensure that the economy’s current strength doesn’t grow into ā€œfrothā€ and result in a new round of inflation. Before rate cuts ā€œI need to see more progress to feel fully confident that inflation is on a sure path to averaging 2% over time,ā€ Bostic added.
