Economist Nicole Sivey expresses concern over Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Walsh's consistent refusal to detail the strategy for reducing inflation. This lack of clarity leaves the market uncertain about the committee's future actions, such as potential interest rate hikes.
“But he will not, he says we're going to get inflation down, he will not say how he does it.”
“Is that a problem?”
“I think that is going to be a hard adjustment.”
“It's just I think the market right now is struggling with the fact that we don't know which way the committee is going to lean.”
