JPM's Kelly: Fed Would Be 'Unwise' to Hike on Hot ISM Report

It highlights a slowdown in job growth momentum and subdued inflation, despite market fears of rising oil prices and high ISM services numbers.

It also explores the possibility of inflation decreasing without causing an economic slowdown or recession, noting that the Federal Reserve's aggressive stance last year did not slow economic growth as expected. The video concludes with the idea that the Fed is navigating uncharted territory, with a potential for a soft landing despite consumer pressures.
