On October 1, 2026 FOMC voting member and Minneapolis Fed President Kashkari stated that the inflation rate remains too high, currently around 3%, and the latest data has not changed this situation; despite facing shocks, the economy remains strong. He mentioned that the longer the economy stays strong, the more he questions the extent of monetary policy tightening, and he expects one more rate hike this year and another in 2027, hoping the Fed can reduce inflation through moderate actions.
