Fed's Miran says demand risk from oil increase may make him more dovish

March 6 (Reuters) - Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran on Friday ‌said the jump in oil prices since the start of the ⁠U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran could sap demand elsewhere and might make him even more in favor of steep ‌interest ⁠rate cuts.

"I'm hesitant to react to what's going on in ⁠oil until we know more, but if ⁠anything it biases me toward ⁠even more dovish policy," Miran told CNBC.
