Classified as a leading hawk in the Federal Reserve, Neel Kashkari, the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, stated, “Expectations for a rate cut in December are reasonable.”
Kashkari preemptively dismissed expectations for a rate cut in September. The market anticipates the Federal Reserve will cut rates as early as September. On June 16, he appeared on CBS‘s Face the Nation and stated, “The Federal Reserve will cut the interest rate once this year, and it is more likely to be in December, not September.” He added, “Expectations for a rate cut in December are reasonable.”
He added, “The Federal Reserve needs more evidence to be sure that inflation is falling back to 2%.”
He emphasized that “it will take a few more months to confirm the trend that inflation is falling.” After the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting on June 11 and 12, the Federal Reserve suggested that it would cut the interest rate once this year.
Kashkari is classified as a leading inflation hawk in the Federal Reserve and has no voting rights in the FOMC for 2024.
