“Everything is in play,” Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic told reporters in St. Petersburg, Florida after inflation report. Asked if that included raising rates by a full percentage point, he replied, “it would mean everything.”
Investors upped bets the central bank could raise rates by 100 basis points at its July 26-27 meeting, which would be the largest increase since the Fed started directly using overnight interest rates to conduct monetary policy in the early 1990s.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell earlier told reporters last month after the central bank raised rates by 75 basis points, to a range of 1.5% to 1.75%, that either a 50 or 75 basis-point increase was likely in July.
The higher than expected US inflation means the Fed will continue its aggressive tightening in the near-term with another hike in July. But the long-term bond yields in the US indicate a possible rate cut by March 2023. In brief, this 9.1% inflation print is likely to be the peak inflation.
