Cleveland Fed president Mester: Inflation readings will be elevated for next couple of months because of math

  • Says April jobs report was disappointing but outlook is still bright
  • Says childcare and vaccinations are main issues with the labor supply rather than unemployment benefits
  • I don't think benefits are main issue but it helps to put people in a position to make the decision to stay home and look after the kids or wait for the vaccine
  • Says she wants to see more and broader progress
  • No doubt we are in recovery but will see some ups and downs
  • Says she wants to see more strength in labor market and expecting that this year
  • Supply chain issues are affecting certain products and commodities "very much so in their pricing"
  • My expectation is that we'll end the year above 2% inflation but when that unwinds, we'll see it fall again in 2022
  • I'm particularly focused on inflation expectations - I'll be looking at surveys and market-based measures - to see them rising and at what pace they're rising above 2%
  • Says financial stability risks overall are moderate
  • Volatility in markets is only a problem when it is coupled with high degrees of leverage
