Dollar Up on Fed's Poole Inflation Talk
Thursday June 10, 11:08 pm ET
TOKYO (Reuters) - The dollar climbed on Friday after a top Federal Reserve official said that U.S. inflation might rise faster than currently expected, hinting that aggressive tightening of monetary policy was on the cards.
St. Louis Fed President William Poole told Reuters in an interview that the U.S. central bank must raise interest rates faster than present expectations if inflation accelerates, saying delaying Fed action would not help the U.S. economy.
"Poole's comments have added to speculation about the Fed's timetable for raising interest rates, and that's leading to some dollar buying today," said Mitsuru Sahara, vice president of forex dealing at UFJ Bank.
"The market has pretty much factored in a 25 basis point hike at the end of this month, but now some are starting to even consider the possibility the Fed will raise by 50."
The euro eased to $1.2055, around 0.4 percent below its level in late U.S. trade.
