- New York Fed's Williams sees no urgency for the next rate hike, and Bloomberg reports he anticipates one more rate increase potentially arriving as late as 2026
- Fed Governor Barr broke from that patient tone, saying more rate hikes are likely needed to bring inflation down
Why it matters: Two Fed officials with direct FOMC voting power are publicly splitting on the path forward — Williams favoring patience, Barr arguing inflation still requires tightening — giving markets competing signals about the timing of the next move, which Bloomberg pegs as potentially as far off as late 2026.
