ChainCatcher reports that, according to Jin10, Federal Reserve’s Scheidler stated on Wednesday that high inflation remains a key issue the Fed needs to address, but he did not specify how monetary policy should respond. Scheidler said, “I believe we still have work to do on inflation,” while also noting that the employment situation is quite good. He pointed out that the large amount of mortgage-backed securities held from past Fed bond purchases is still suppressing housing borrowing costs, with mortgage rates “possibly 75 to 100 basis points lower than their original levels.”
