Comments from St Louis Fed President Bullard
- Low rates amid 'boom time' assets sets stage for bubbles over next 2-3 years
- Concerned low-yield markets will 'wake up', abruptly reprice Fed hikes
- Yellen's view not far from median Fed expectations for rate rises
- Asset prices to potentially play bigger role in Fed policy
Bullard putting words into Yellen's mouth. That's a dangerous game. And there's no way the Fed would ever have the courage to raise rates to fight asset prices.
I'm starting to get the feeling Bullard is a bit delusional.
He spoke with Reuters in an interview.
