Warsh cites economy, capital competition and geopolitics in Fed rate hike decision

Kevin Warsh, chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, said at a press conference that three main factors have shaped the Fed since July: solid economic and labor-market conditions, intensifying competition to attract capital, and geopolitical risks. Warsh added, "최근 인플레이션 지표를 볼 때 내가 기존에 갖고 있던 우려를 뒤집을 만한 근거가 거의 없었다."
