Economic and event calendar in Asia 15 May 2026 - Fed's Williams is speaking
The desk believes that the Federal Reserve's stance on interest rates is poised for a shift, particularly in light of recent inflation data. Per the full note [source], Fed President John Williams' previous wait-and-see approach may soon be challenged as inflation pressures mount. With inflation having jumped significantly since his last comments, the market anticipates a more definitive stance from the Fed. Current consensus among analysts suggests a target of 1.075 for USD/JPY, with expectations for volatility as we approach key economic indicators.
