Federal Reserve Should Raise Rates as U.S. April CPI Hits 3.8%, Highest Since 2023

GateNews
According to Citadel Securities and former New York Fed Chair Bill Dudley, on May 27, the Federal Reserve should raise interest rates to combat inflation risks. U.S. April CPI rose 3.8% year-over-year, marking the largest increase since 2023, prompting Citadel to warn the Fed may be "falling behind the curve." Dudley cautioned that the Fed's credibility as an "inflation fighter" is at risk, noting that U.S. inflation has exceeded the 2% target for over five consecutive years and long-term inflation expectations are rising. The former Fed official stated there is "virtually no reason" for rate cuts under current conditions.
