Fed Governor Milan Advocates for Lowering Interest Rates
2026-03-07 00:51

Fed Governor Milan stated that if the Federal Reserve decides not to cut interest rates in March, he will vote against it. He believes the neutral rate should be around 2.5%-2.75% and suggests lowering the rates to this level before reassessing. Milan also noted that an oil shock could potentially drag down core inflation by harming demand, although the Fed typically does not react to oil price fluctuations.
