Comments from the Fed’s Rosengren on Bloomberg TV
– We’re arguably at full employment
– Confirms he’s one of the dots forecasting 4 hikes this year
– Core inflation has risen from 1.4% to 1.7%
Rosengren placed himself firmly in the hawkish camp but for the most part, he spoke a lot to say very little. He was asked about certain things and indicators that he was watching; he responded saying employment and inflation and talking about the mandate.
