Warsh signals possible rate hikes

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh has signaled that rate hikes may be needed as US inflation remains stubbornly elevated.

His comments reassured investors that fighting inflation remains the Fed's main priority.

Warsh's remarks suggest a more hawkish stance than markets had anticipated.

The potential for further rate increases could impact borrowing costs and economic growth.
