Economist Luke Tilley Talks Navigating Market Volatility, Bank Failures & Fed Rate Hike
Luke Tilley, the chief economist at Wilmington Trust, joined Cheddar News to discuss the state of the economy, the Fed's rate hike in the midst of market volatility and bank failure concerns. "So on the more encouraging side, we do see goods prices coming down. We think that the shelter indices part of CPI and PCE will be coming down because we've seen the turn in housing prices just in the market data," he said.
Stocks dipped Friday morning after the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury crossed 5% for the first time in 16 years and also following Fed Chair Jerome Powell's remarks on Thursday.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Thursday that inflation remains too high and that bringing it down to the Fed's target level will likely require a slower-growing economy and job market.
