Mr. Barkin said he was taking a "trial and error" approach to cutting interest rates, suggesting he might support a 25 basis point cut, rather than the 50 basis points that some analysts believe. He noted that inflation was still half a percentage point above the Fed's 2 per cent target and that a rate cut could end up fuelling inflation by boosting demand for homes and other goods.
