Comments from Charles Evans
- Economic growth is picking up and is pretty decent
- Inflation continues to be a bit soft
- Labour markets have been strong
- The Us labour market has been showing really quite good numbers for quite a long time
- I marvel at the strength of the US consumer
- The US consumer is really picking up the pace
- We might have expected stronger investment at this time
- Expects annual growth around 1.75%-2.0% going forward
- Sees productivity returning to pre-1995 growth pace
- 1.75% core pce means close to goal
- Would feel better about rate hikes if was more confident in inflation rising
- Is worried that inflation expectations are declining and not rising
Evans is a voter next year.
