Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan suggested that the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) may need to accelerate the pace of interest rate hikes this winter. TradingView reported that Logan anticipates at least two more 25-basis-point increases are necessary before officials can pause to evaluate the broader economic impact.
Logan warned that upcoming Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) inflation data for October could show an acceleration, supported by strong underlying economic growth. Her comments followed the release of Consumer Price Index (CPI) data on November 10, 2026, which showed a 0.4% monthly increase, while Super Core CPI rose by 0.44% on the same day.
