Will The Fed Continue To Be Naughty In 2023?

Vishnu Varathan, Head of Economics & Strategy, Mizuho Bank

Will The Fed Continue To Be Naughty In 2023?

How aggressive will the Fed be in 2023 in light of an impending recession and will Asian Central Banks be able to decouple or will it have to resort to being price takers? China has further eased its Covid-19 restrictions by scrapping quarantine for inbound travellers. But will this be met by higher infections and has this been somewhat priced in by markets. For answers, we speak to Vishnu Varathan, Head of Economics & Strategy, Mizuho Bank.
