BANK OF AMERICA SEES THREE FED HIKES
Bank of America expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates three times this year, shifting from its prior view of no changes. The bank cites stronger economic data and a more hawkish Fed tone focused on inflation under new chair Kevin Warsh. Markets are pricing higher yields, though most investors still expect fewer hikes.
SUMMARY OF FED DECISION (6/17/2026):
1. Fed leaves rates unchanged for the 4th straight meeting
2. 9 out of 18 officials expect at least one rate hike this year
3. Fed lowers its median 2026 US GDP projection from 2.4% to 2.2%
4. Fed now sees PCE inflation not returning to its 2% target until 2028
5. Fed says inflation "remains elevated" relative to their goal
6. Today's Fed decision was reached in a unanimous 12-0 vote
The Fed appears to be bracing for more inflation.
FED LIFTS RATE PATH, INFLATION OUTLOOK RISES
Federal Reserve projections show the median fed funds rate rising to 3.8% in 2026 (from 3.4%), 3.6% in 2027, and 3.4% in 2028, with the long-run rate unchanged at 3.1%. Officials now expect higher inflation through 2026, with PCE not returning to the 2% target until 2028. Growth is slightly lower, unemployment broadly steady. Only 18 of 19 policymakers submitted projections.
