Weak June Jobs Data Won't Deter Fed From Focusing on Inflation

According to Evercore ISI and Santander analyst Stephen Stanley, the Federal Reserve will not dismiss weak June employment data as a reason to abandon rate-hike expectations; rather, inflation data will remain the key driver of policy decisions. While markets have significantly reduced expectations for additional rate increases this year, analysts argue this reaction is excessive. Stephen Stanley noted that the employment report may only "slightly" shift Fed officials' views, but most policymakers still view the labor market as stable.
