Editor's Notes

  • #31 Give predictions - Economy recovering faster, inflation higher than predicted. Carney reminds us that the conditional promise of leaving rates alone until mid 2010 is based on keeping inflation in check. The longer we go the more severe the rate correction will have to be Give Cautions - US economy is still sluggish.
