MARKETWATCH 3:33 PM ET 12/6/2018
Federal Reserve officials are considering whether to signal a new wait-and-see mentality after a likely interest-rate increase at their meeting in December, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday (https://
www.wsj.com/articles/ restrained-inflation-reduces-urgency-for-quarterly-rate-increase-pattern-1544127856?mod=mktw), citing recent interviews and statements. Officials still think the broad direction of short-term interest rates will be higher in 2019, according to recent interviews and public statements, the report said. But as they push up their benchmark, they are becoming less sure how fast they will need to act or how far they will need to go, the report added."
