U.S. Bancorp CEO says economy heading for “moderate” recession

He also said one more interest rate hike was expected from the Federal Reserve in the summer.

The Fed has been pushing up rates since last year to douse red-hot inflation, which has been stickier than what some had expected.

The relentless monetary policy tightening has raised the odds of a recession as consumers cut down on discretionary spending, which is hurting loan demand.

U.S. Bancorp is seeing a drop in loan demand in the second quarter compared to a year earlier, Cecere said.
