Federal Reserve (Fed) Bank of Minneapolis President Neel Kashkari struck a more reserved tone than some of his Fed counterparts on Tuesday, cautioning that it's still too soon to be able to tell if tariff-led inflation will be "sticky" or not. However, Kashkari noted that he's particularly bullish on the labor market, and is expecting a return to form for American job creation which has sputtered recently.
