Fed Should Remain Accommodative, Kocherlakota Says

Ron Temple, Lazard Asset Management Managing Director & Co-Head of Multi Asset, said 2018 will see higher interest rates on the long end of the curve. Former Minneapolis Fed President Narayana Kocherlakota said the Fed can stop inflation from coming by raising rates and is worried about the Fed still raising rates. Krishna Memani, OppenheimerFunds CIO, said because of the tax bill, there will be a short-term increase in growth and earnings. U.S. Representative Will Hurd (R-TX) said building a concrete wall is the least effective way to build border security.
