Fed's Harker sees 50 bps rate hikes in June, July, then 'measured' hikes

Reuters reported that Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank President Patrick Harker on Wednesday said he expects the US central bank to deliver two more half-point rate hikes before switching to quarter-point increments until the "scourge" of inflation is beaten back.

Key notes

  • Expect 50bps rate hikes in June, July.
  • Anticipate sequence of 'measured' rate hikes after.
  • Until confident inflation moving toward 2%.
  • Sees 3% US GDP growth this year.
  • Job market tight through 2022. 
  • elevated energy prices could be with us for while.

"Going forward, if there are no significant changes in the data in the coming weeks, I expect two additional 50 basis point rate hikes in June and July," Harker said in remarks prepared for delivery to the Mid-Size Bank Coalition of America.

"After that, I anticipate a sequence of increases in the funds rate at a measured pace until we are confident that inflation is moving toward the Committee’s inflation target."

Market implications

While the comments have had no direct impact on markets, there is an undertone of hawkishness at the Fed that is roiling markets on Wednesday.

As a consequence, the US dollar is firmly higher on Wednesday, on pace to snap a three-session losing streak. Rising inflation has knocked sentiment following yesterday's WSJ interview with the Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell who struck a more hawkish tone.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
