Fed's Kashkari just threw a red flag at the market: If the Middle East goes south, rate hikes aren't just talk.
He mentioned that if the conflict in Iran drags on and the Strait of Hormuz gets blocked, we could see a global energy crunch, leading to runaway inflation expectations. This means the Fed might have to pull off a series of rate hikes.
Plus, he's already pushed back against any hints of rate cuts. Now he's straight up saying: the next rate adjustment could go either way—rate cuts or hikes—depending on how inflation plays out.
It's clear now: the situation in the Middle East has directly tied the Fed's monetary policy to oil prices. If oil prices go haywire, we could see the rate hike cycle kick back into gear. The market's loose expectations? They need to be completely repriced now.
