“We need to embrace the mindset that inflation a bit above target is far better than inflation a bit below target in today’s economic environment,” San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank President Mary Daly said on Monday in remarks prepared for delivery in Dublin, Ireland. That’s despite low unemployment, 3.6% in January, that economists had expected would push inflation upwards but has not done so.
