Lockhart noted that the apparent rapid improvement of data on unemployment , now at 6.7% repositories exaggerating progress in the labor market .

It is also concerned that inflation remains below the Fed's target level of 2%. Lockhart expects to return inflation to the target level of the Fed , in general , as inflation expectations remain stable .

The survey results also showed that participants rely on export growth and investment, which leads us to expect from this side support for economic growth instead factor in consumer spending . Bank of Canada and used to say about the positive signs , so another confirmation of this position is not affected by a significant decrease in expectations to reduce interest rates by the Bank of Canada.

The yen has risen considerably against the U.S. dollar , which is probably a reaction to the publication on Friday employment report in the U.S., which came after the close of Asian markets last week.
