Monetary policy

Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia President Patrick Harker wants the central bank to take its time in hiking to avoid inverting the yield curve.

Chicago Fed President Charles Evans says he’s “quite comfortable” with the prospect of another interest-rate hike in December.

Federal Reserve Bank of Boston President Eric Rosengren said the Fed should keep raising rates until it’s in “mildly restrictive” territory.

As the U.S. economy remains strong, Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams urged continued gradual rate increases

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell played down the signal being sent by a flatter yield curve and said the risk of recession was not especially high.

Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome Powell said the removal of “accommodative” from the post-Federal Open Market Committee meeting statement doesn’t “represent a change in policy.”

Federal Reserve officials raised interest rates for a third time this year and reaffirmed their outlook for further gradual hikes well into 2019, risking fresh criticism from President Donald Trump.

Market expectations for rates appear to be catching up to the Fed’s own projections.

Jerome Powell has already put his own stamp on Federal Reserve communications. If he wants to shake things up a little more, he’s got a number of options.

President Donald Trump plans to nominate Nellie Liang, a former Federal Reserve economist with expertise in financial stability, to the central bank’s Board of Governors.
