Fed officials cited risks if Congress fails to pass more aid

WASHINGTON – Federal Reserve officials expressed concern at their most-recent meeting that the U.S. economy recovery could falter if Congress failed to approve another round of pandemic relief. The Fed on Wednesday released minutes of its most recent meeting, showing that officials believed the economy was growing faster than expected. The September statement was approved on a 10-2 vote, with Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan dissenting because he favored less precise policy guidance in terms of inflation. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari dissented because he wanted the Fed to make a bolder statement about the change in operations regarding inflation. The minutes recognized large problems in trying to forecast the future path of the economy.

Fed's Kashkari warns that delaying stimulus will have 'enormous consequences'

Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari became the latest central banker to warn against not getting more stimulus to the U.S. economy, saying that the cost of doing nothing could be major. As the impasse in Washington intensifies, Kashkari told CNBC that workers, businesses and governments need more cash from Congress. "There are enormous consequences if we just let things go, and the downturn will end up being much worse," he said on "Squawk Box." After Trump's directive, Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester told CNBC that a delay in stimulus would mean a "much slower" recovery. "Whatever assistance can be provided to people who have lost their jobs is important," Kashkari said.

GOP targets Democratic-run California in election gamble

(AP Photo/Sait Serkan Gurbuz, File)LOS ANGELES Republican candidates eager for a turnaround in heavily Democratic California are spotlighting what they see as a dire threat to families and communities their own states policies. If Joe Biden says hes fighting for the soul of America, Republican candidates say they are fighting for the soul of California. Yet, in an election year that could produce a record Democratic turnout in California, Republican chances of gaining ground are uncertain at best. The California Republican Party was once a national powerhouse, and Orange County was a foundation block in the conservative revolution that sent the former California Gov. The numbers are witnessed at the ballot box: The GOP hasnt won a statewide election since 2006 and George H.W.

Fed's Neel Kashkari says coronavirus economic recovery 'could be a long, hard road'

Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari said Sunday he expects the path to economic recovery from the coronavirus pandemic will be a "long, hard road," pouring cold water on hopes for a "V-shaped" rebound. "It would be wonderful if some new therapy were developed in the next couple months," Kashkari said. "Then potentially we would have a V-shaped recovery" a phrase describing a steep market decline followed by a galloping rally. "This could be a long, hard road that we have ahead of us until we get to either an effective therapy or a vaccine. It's hard to see a V-shaped recovery under that scenario," Kashkari said.

Fed's Kashkari says, 'We need to err on the side of being generous' with rescue programs

Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari, who helped guide the U.S. economy out of its last crisis, said Thursday that policymakers need to be less selective this time when deciding whom to help. Kashkari was an architect of the 2008 Troubled Asset Relief Program that aided banks through the Great Recession. The program came about to resuscitate the then-moribund financial sector, which had been crippled by toxic assets largely related to the mortgage industry crash. "We need to err on the side of being generous, helping as many small businesses, as many small profits as we can to retain their workforce," he said. "It's much better to keep workers attached to their businesses so that when the crisis is behind us, we can then turn the economy back on as opposed to have to reorganize the economy."

Minneapolis Fed chief: Small businesses need forgivable loans

Neel Kashkari said one possible option is giving forgivable loans to small businesses that retain their workers. "Unemployment insurance is important," Kashkari told correspondent Scott Pelley. "But it would be much better and much better for the taxpayers and for the country to keep small businesses operating and to keep them with their employees intact." "My advice to Congress as they're designing their programs to help workers and to help small businesses, err on being generous," Kashkari said. As a result, they know small businesses aren't the only industries that will likely need help.

Coronavirus and the economy: Best and worst-case scenarios from Minneapolis Fed president

Today, he is one of 12 Federal Reserve regional bank presidents who oversee and support the nation's largest banks. This is the fundamental reason the Federal Reserve exists.

Fed's Kashkari says 'we are using our tools aggressively,' but he doesn't see negative rates coming

Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari said the central bank still has monetary policy options to deal with the coronavirus crisis, though negative interest rates still are unlikely. The Fed thus far has cut its benchmark interest rate to near-zero and instituted asset purchases to total at least $700 billion. The central bank has not yet intervened in the commercial paper market, despite Wall Street's anticipation that help could be needed. "I think we're all watching the commercial paper market closely," Kashkari said. Kashkari rejected criticism from some quarters that the Fed should have waited to use its final ammunition on the interest rate front.

Fed's Kashkari calls for no more rate hikes until inflation hits 2%

The Federal Reserve shouldn't raise interest rates again until inflation accelerates, Neel Kashkari, the president of the central bank's Minneapolis district, told CNBC. "Make an announcement today that we will not raise rates until we get core inflation back to our 2% target," Kashkari said Monday during a "Squawk Box" interview. "That's not a commitment to cut rates, that's not a commitment to hold forever, it's simply saying we're not going to raise rates prematurely." The current core inflation level, excluding food and energy according to the Fed's preferred personal consumption expenditures index, is around 1.7%. There would need to be a "really significant" rise in inflation before rate hikes would be likely, Powell said.
