US Fed's Waller Signals Possible Additional Rate Hikes Amid Elevated Inflation
US Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller indicated that further interest rate hikes are likely as inflation remains above the 2% target. Speaking at the Istanbul Economic Forum, he emphasized that the timing and pace of increases will depend on economic data. The Fed recently raised rates by 25 basis points after a nine-month pause, citing a strong labor market and persistent inflationary pressures, including high energy prices influenced by the Middle East conflict and global trade uncertainties.
