Logan Says Fed Should Be Cautious With More Interest-Rate Cuts

Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas President Lorie Logan said policymakers should be cautious in considering additional interest-rate reductions while inflation remains above target and the labor market relatively balanced.

“The combination of persistent inflation, resilient demand and modest labor market slack indicates to me that policy is likely only modestly restrictive,” Logan said Tuesday in prepared remarks for an event at her bank. “There may be relatively little room to make additional rate cuts.”
