Comments from Philly Fed hawk Charles Plosser:

  • Repeats that he expects 3% growth in 2015
  • Says his last dissent was in part opposition to time-based policy
  • Fed should be data dependent, not time dependent
  • Research shows delaying rate liftoff is risky

Plosser is living in another era and fighting the last war. He’s a non-voter and retires in a few months.
