Quick Take
- The FOMC minutes were released Thursday, showing a split among members over further rate hikes.
- However, it was clear that rate cuts will not be happening in the near future.
- In the staff economic outlook, it was stated a “mild recession” could occur later this year.
- Two years ago, the term “transitory inflation” was floated – later turning into persistent inflation. Concerns are that a “mild recession” may turn into a harsh recession.
- President of the Minneapolis Fed, Neel Kashkari, suggests a 6% fed funds rate is possible – heightening uncertainty around the crypto outlook.
