(Reuters) – Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta President Raphael Bostic said he hasn’t decided if the Fed should increase interest rates by 50 basis points or 75 basis points at its policy meeting next month, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Bostic told the Journal the U.S. central bank still has some way to go on raising interest rates this year and it was too soon to say the inflation surge had peaked. (https://on.wsj.com/3Cu2ssm)
