Odaily Odaily News: Chicago Fed President Goolsbee said that if the US inflation rate continues to fall back to the 2% target, policymakers should cut interest rates. Goolsbee said in an interview today, "We are on the road to 2% inflation. If you keep interest rates unchanged when inflation is falling, you are tightening, so you should make a decision instead of continuing to sit on your hands." Before Goolsbee made the above remarks, data released last week showed that the Federal Reserve's most favored inflation indicator, the PCE data in May, only rose by 0.1% month-on-month, the lowest level in six months.
