Fed Mary Daly Interest Rate Policy 2026: Why 'Deliberate Calibration' Is Next
San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly emphasizes 'deliberate calibration' for the Fed Mary Daly interest rate policy 2026. Insights on inflation targets and market impact.
The Fed's "good place" might mean a slower ride for your wallet than expected. Mary Daly, President of the San Francisco Federal Reserve, signalized that while current policy is effective, any further moves must be executed with extreme caution.
Fed Mary Daly Interest Rate Policy 2026 and the Calibration Strategy
According to Reuters, Daly stated that the current policy stance is in a "good place" to achieve the Fed's inflation target of 2%. She emphasized that the central bank shouldn't rush into changes. Instead, the focus has shifted to "calibration"—a deliberate and data-driven adjustment of rates to match the cooling but resilient economy.
Daly’s remarks suggest that the era of aggressive pivots is over. With the labor market remaining steady as of January 16, 2026, the risk of reigniting inflation outweighs the immediate need for deeper cuts. For investors, this means the "higher for longer" sentiment hasn't entirely vanished; it's just being repackaged as "steady and careful."
