Fed raising rates by 50 bps will be a proactive move, expect 25 bps hike: Port Shelter Investment
Feb 9, 2022 12:48 AM

Richard Harris, CEO at Port Shelter Investment Management believes US Fed moving interest rates up by 50 basis points (bps) would be a very proactive move in terms of inflation. However, he doesn’t think the Fed has got the courage to go ahead and do that. “I suspect it will be 25 bps now,” he added.
