Kashkari's comments follow Wednesday morning's release of the August personal consumption expenditures price index, known as the Fed's preferred gauge of inflation. The core version of index, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, came in lower than economists forecasted at 3% on an annual basis.
"There are many different measures of inflation, but it's running at around a 3% rate," Kashkari said. "It's been elevated now for more than five years. I didn't think the inflation data today really changed that story for me very much." Kashkari said other economic data released Wednesday on consumer spending and gross domestic product showed the economy is "resilient."
