What happened

Well supportedReported by 10 independent outlets

Christopher Waller signaled that the central bank could wait on rate hikes because inflation tracking and mortgage rates are being affected by the U.S.-Iran conflict. This shift in outlook came as bond investors rallied despite Brent crude trading more than 50% above pre-war levels, causing mortgage rates to ease after seven straight weeks of climbing.
