Comments from the Fed's Evans on MNI:

  • No rush to curb Treasury reinvestments after liftoff
  • Not predisposed to vote against a Dec liftoff
  • Would rather wait but not primed to dissent against a Dec hike
  • Employment report boosts confidence in outlook
  • Dollar's rise after the jobs report 'normal' and to be expected
  • Dollar strength a sign of confidence in US economy

Evans is one of the biggest doves at the Fed. If he's not yelling and screaming about dissenting and that the Fed is making a big mistake then I think he realizes a hike is a fait accompli and is moving on to fight the next battle.
