Highest level since the financial crisis
This suggests that there is little reason to further increase rates, d. reverse the rate curve, slow down the economy and risk a coming recession. "If inflationary expectations or real growth prospects increase, the Fed can still raise interest rates."
Kashkari largely alone with his opinion
