An analyst said recent U.S. jobs data did not indicate the labor market needed support, while inflation remained well above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target. According to Jin10, analyst Anstey said the Fed’s dual mandate of price stability and maximum employment made it difficult to argue, based on the data alone, that the current job market required assistance.
Anstey said inflation was still far above the Fed’s target and expected next week’s CPI data to show core inflation rising to 2.9%, while headline inflation was expected to surge 4.2% year over year. He compared that outlook with a 3.4% year-over-year increase in average hourly earnings in May in the United States.
Anstey added that it would be surprising if Fed policymakers did not further signal that a rate hike in 2026 was possible.
