[Fed's Goolsby: Inflation Has Exceeded Energy Scope, Fed Not Yet on the Road Back to 2%] Chicago Fed President John Goolsby said in an interview with CNBC on Friday that even with a rapid drop in oil prices, refining capacity remains "problematic," which will keep diesel and jet fuel prices high. He stated that inflation is currently spreading to categories whose prices are not driven by rising energy costs, and if demand overheats, the Fed cannot ignore inflation. Goolsby believes that data centers are pushing up prices, and that service inflation and rising healthcare costs feel like they are unlikely to fall quickly in the short term. Goolsby added that the Fed is not currently on track to achieve its 2% inflation target, and the central bank needs to address this issue to ensure that demand does not overheat; if data indicates that inflation is worsening, this will prompt the Fed to take more aggressive policy action.
