Evans: We need to allow ourselves some time to get to neutral rates
We need to allow ourselves some time as we get to neutral rates so we can assess inflation pressuresWe need to find the right setting that gets us to 2% inflation and maintains a vibrant labor marketWay too early to say the Fed has let its inflation mandate get out of handThe market is now pricing in a 91% chance of 50 bps on May 4 but it's also pricing in two 50 bps hikes in the subsequent two meetings. Is that allowing 'some time'? And will the Fed continue to hike up to 3.00% from there?
