Statement

Name: Dennis P. Lockhart

Summary: Atlanta Fed prez: Judge us on rate hike in a year: "As those challenges subside and as a more normal economy developed, to me, it became more and more clear that it was time to normalize interest rates. Now, exactly what normal interest rates look like remains to be seen. And will be a question of how the economy performs. But I and my colleagues believe that zero is not normal." (The interview did not actually take place on December 23rd, but the article doesn't say when it happened.)
