Fed Bullard urges 50bps rate cut to realign with markets

St. Louis Fed President James Bullard said Fed’s interest rates are “too high” and a -50bps cut this month is needed to realign with financial markets. Bond yields dropped to record lows on expectation of Fed cut and intensifying risk of global trade war. Bullard said “in this situation I would respect the market signal,”

He added, “we should have a robust debate about moving 50 basis points at this meeting…It’d be better in my mind to go ahead and get realigned right now”.
