There will not be a leak.

Will Trump Summon Warsh to the White House?

  • Yes

  • No, Just Media Pressure

My position didn’t change as explained on August 31 in Political Realities May Force the Fed to Hike in September

It will be a stretch for the Fed to pause for many reasons, not just the CPI.
