Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart: an interest rate hike in June is still possible

Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart said on Tuesday that an interest rate hike in June was still possible if the U.S. economy would improve. He added that two interest rate hikes were possible this year. But he noted that the possible Britain's exit from the European Union was a risk to the U.S. economy.

Lockhart is not a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) this year.
