Rates to Rise by March: It’s About Time

June 27, 2014 By E.J. Smith

St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank President James Bullard

President of the St. Louis Fed, James Bullard, knocked the market on the chin a bit yesterday by saying that rates would be going up by March. It’s certainly about time they did. Savers and retirees have been bearing the brunt of the nation’s attempt to use misguided monetary policy to generate growth for too long. As Bloomberg notes here, Bullard’s statements contradict Fed Chair Janet Yellen’s statements somewhat, adding uncertainty to the market.

In 1995, E.J. began his investment career at Fidelity Investments in Boston before joining Richard C. Young & Co., Ltd. in 1998. E.J. has trained at Sig Sauer Academy in Epping, NH. His first drum set was a 5-piece Slingerland with Zildjians. He grew-up worshiping Neil Peart (RIP) of the band Rush, and loves the song Tom Sawyer—the name of his family’s boat, a Grady-White Canyon 306. He grew up in Mattapoisett, MA, an idyllic small town on the water near Cape Cod. He spends time in Newport, RI and Bartlett, NH—both as far away from Wall Street as one could mentally get. The Newport office is on a quiet, tree lined street not far from the harbor and the log cabin in Bartlett, NH, the “Live Free or Die” state, sits on the edge of the White Mountain National Forest. He enjoys spending time in Key West and Paris.
