Governor Christopher Waller is a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, more remarks:

  • the longer inflation stays up and the more aggressive the Federal Reserve has to be the less likely a soft landing will be
  • I think there is a chance we can pull off a soft landing
  • want to get rates positive so they have a real bite on inflation
  • market are expecting real rates to be positive and to continue to rise next year
