Fed's Kashkari: Lack of wage growth signals there is still slack in jobs market

Comments from Kashkari on a panel in Washington

  • Wants to see wage growth build and inflation rising towards 2% before supporting a rate hike
  • There may well be some labor market slack
  • We should allow a tight labor market to 'continue to run' to get more workers back to work

Kashkari is one of the few policymakers who wants to wait-and-see on inflation before hiking.
