Raphael Bostic, the President of the Federal Reserve of Atlanta, has hinted that he might favor another 50 basis point rate cut in November if US Job data improves. This conditional expectation is not unheard of as other Federal Reserve officials have hinted.
All Eyes on US Job Data
In an exclusive interview with Reuters, Bostic said the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will emphasize US Job data at its November meeting.
“A surprise to the weak side …. would pull me much further into really needing another dramatic move,” Bostic said in the interview.
