AI summary

What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan argues that inflation remains above target and calls for modestly higher rates to finish the price-stability job. While June CPI fell 0.4% and PPI fell 0.3%, year-over-year inflation remains 3.5% and 5.5%, suggesting more restraint. Markets price a 25bp hike later this year, potentially weighing near-term equity performance.
