St. Louis Fed Chief James Bullard Interviewed by Wall Street Journal

James Bullard

Speech from Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Abstract: Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard said the U.S. central bank should start raising interest rates “sooner rather than later,” and that he sees a March rate rise as likely amid high inflation. He also said a strong job market could push the unemployment rate to under 3% this year, during an interview with The Wall Street Journal’s Michael S. Derby on Wednesday.
