Dallas Fed's Fisher says he opposes more easing

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch)
Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Richard Fisher said Monday that he would oppose any more quantitative easing through asset purchases
"I am not in favor of doing more," Fisher said in an interview on Bloomberg television
He said the central bank "may have painted itself into a little bit of corner" by making it harder to exit from its accommodative policy
Fisher noted that he was against all rounds of asset purchases
In his press conference last week, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said the option of further asset purchases remained on the table
At the moment, Fed watchers believe that Bernanke would only engineer more quantitative easing if the economy slows unexpectedly
Fisher will not be a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee until 2014
