Dallas Fed President Kaplan: There's an increasing argument for action because of trade

  • I haven't made a decision about the September meeting yet
  • By the time weakness spreads from manufacturing to consumer, it might be too late
  • Every business says available and cost of capital is not my problem
  • I don't think monetary policy is causing a slowdown, and I don't think it would be enough to arrest a severe decline
  • I'm open to an adjustment in September or in the next few meetings
  • I noticed that August consumer sentiment numbers were a bit weaker
  • So long as the U.S. consumer is strong, the economy will stay strong
