Fed's Bullard: Rate guidance from here should outline a relatively flat policy path
St. Louis Fed President James Bullard was out on the wires in the last minute, saying that low US productivity and global demand for safe assets is holding the neutral rate low.
Key quotes:
• Substantially raising target interest rate from current level could make Fed policy too restrictive
• Rate guidance from here should outline a relatively flat policy path
