Helious Squawk - FED Hammock Speech:
Hammock is a massive hawk, she is one of the most hawkish members on the board, she would rather hike to get to 2% target than use other tools the FED has at their disposal. She was one of the 3 members that voted against the FED to stay unchanged in the previous meeting. Now knowing the recent data points with a miss in NFP, miss in CPI and PPI, and energy inflation trending downards, the FED is vindicated in their decision.
