what happened

San Francisco Federal Reserve President Mary Daly said on Thursday that the central bank will likely need to raise interest rates further to bring elevated inflation under control. She added that there is no need to rush into that step.

"My bias is that further tightening will be needed," Daly said at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research. She noted that price pressures are moving beyond energy and goods into services, where inflation can stay sticky for a long time.

Daly welcomed higher bond yields and tighter financial conditions, saying they give policymakers a little more time to make carefully calibrated decisions. The information comes from Reuters.

why it matters

Remarks from a Fed official at this level shape market expectations for interest rates, so traders watch US Treasury yields and the dollar closely. Hawkish comments typically support the dollar, while for equities they signal more expensive borrowing ahead.
