Analyst: The conditions for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates are not yet mature, but the reasons are accumulating

According to Jinshi reports, Federal Reserve officials hinted that they may need to raise interest rates soon rather than cut them, especially in the context of rapidly rising inflation. Evercore ISI analyst Krishna Guha stated that a decline in energy prices could provide relief, but the interest rate outlook has decoupled from oil prices, and there remains uncertainty about whether underlying inflation will cool. Claudia Sam, chief economist at New Century Advisors, pointed out that the conditions to prompt the Federal Reserve to respond to supply-driven inflation have not yet emerged, but she acknowledged that the reasons for taking action are accumulating.
