Stocks finished higher Thursday after Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic gave sort-of dovish commentary about what investors should expect from further rate hikes. He said that while some Fed officials think a half-percentage-point increase should be in the cards, he thinks a quarter-point raise would be doable. After the close, though, Fed Governor Christopher Waller swooped in with comments perceived to be more hawkish, saying the central bank could end up at a higher terminal rate if inflation data remains hot. (Bizarre side note: Waller didn’t actually get to deliver his prepared remarks Thursday.
