John Lonski reacts to the FOMC decision to leave rates unchanged and the language of the press release. He notes that tax cuts will be a fiscal stimulus this year that the Fed may want to watch shake out before moving rates. Inflation risks “have not gone away,” he argues, noting moves in the metals market backing his thesis. In fact, he thinks it may be difficult for the Fed to cut at all this year even with a new Chair.
