Recap Around the Street 🧠

The word of the week at last week’s Fed meeting was “recalibration” (we wrote about it in our Local H -themed Weekly Edge). To the Fed, recalibration means moving towards a more neutral stance in monetary policy in order to prevent undue weakening in the U.S. economy by holding rates at too restrictive of a level for too long. The question is what rate the Fed thinks is “neutral”. The current median projection in the Dot Plot (which should be taken with a big grain of salt) is ~2.9%. But Powell said in the press conference that he thinks the neutral rate is “significantly higher” than it was in the post -GFC period.(Contributed by Cameron Dawson, CIO at NewEdge Wealth).
