[Natixis Expects the Federal Reserve to Maintain Interest Rates Unchanged Throughout 2026] Odaily Planet Daily News: Former New York Fed Chief Economist and Natixis U.S. Chief Economist Christopher Hodge stated that Federal Reserve Chair Warsh's aggressive hawkish stance might create a 'credibility trap.' Christopher Hodge pointed out that Warsh's aversion to 'forward guidance' and 'dot plots' is reasonable in the current uncertain environment but also reveals a risk bias. If CPI data in the coming months shows noise due to short-term disruptions like tariffs or energy shocks, Warsh may be forced to raise rates due to his earlier stance. Natixis expects the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates unchanged throughout 2026.
