Source Fxstreet
Federal Reserve (Fed) Board of Governors member Adriana Kugler noted on Friday that US growth and economic activity remain healthy overall, but noted that progress toward the Fed's inflation goals has been somewhat lopsided.
Key highlights
In considering appropriate policy rates, we will watch developments, carefully assess data, outlook and risks.
Recent progress on inflation is slow and uneven. Inflation remains elevated.
January jobs report shows the US labor market is healthy, neither weakening nor overheating.
Continued productivity gains would help the Fed attain goals.
The US economy is on a firm footing. I anticipate solid GDP growth in Q1.
