The large number of part time workers reduces the pressures of wage growth on inflation for a considerable period, in the view of analysts. The upward pressure from medical care costs, housing and import prices is also expected to subside in the rest of 2014.

The expectations for inflation in 2014-2016 and U.S. Federal Reserve chairwoman Yellen's response

05/12/2014

Bernanke pointed to low inflation below the Fed's 2% target during the period of quantitative easing policies in 2010-2013. Higher prices of medical care, housing and import prices are expected in the rest of 2014. Analysts say this will taper off and inflation expectations are still much below 2% for 2014, especially as large number of part time workers keeps wage growth at a low level, and is likely to do so for a considerable period probably into 2015. Higher energy and food costs are not included in the core index for inflation the Fed looks at.
