Bostic, speaking at an event in Atlanta, noted that the balance of risks between inflation and the job market are closer to level, but he wants to be sure the Fed avoids cutting rates too soon, only to have to raise rates later if inflation reaccelerates. "I am willing to wait, but it's coming ... It is coming," Bostic said. Financial markets broadly expect the Fed to cut interest rates at its Sept. 17-18 meeting, which would mark its first such move in this policy cycle.

U.S. producer prices increased less than expected in July as the cost of services fell by the most in nearly 1-1/2 years amid signs of diminishing pricing power for businesses, evidence of waning inflation pressures that reinforced hopes of an interest rate cut next month. The report from the Labor Department on Tuesday also showed favorable readings for most of the components that go into the calculation of the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price indexes, the inflation measures tracked by the Federal Reserve for monetary policy. A surge in the unemployment rate to a near three-year high of 4.3% in July fanned fears in financial markets of a recession, which have been largely dismissed by economists.

Wholesale price increases in the United States eased in July, suggesting that inflation pressures are further cooling as the Federal Reserve moves closer to cutting interest rates, likely beginning next month. The Labor Department reported Tuesday that its producer price index — which tracks inflation before it reaches consumers — rose 0.1% from June to July. The July wholesale figures reflect a broad and steady slowdown in price increases, which peaked at a four-decade high in mid-2022 but are now moving toward the Fed's 2% inflation target.
