It's really very good. Core inflation is fairly low and energy prices will decrease rapidly in the next month or two.
Stephen Gallagher
Core inflation was the good news in the report. That calmed the financial markets.
Haseeb Ahmed
The monthly increase of 0.4 percent is much higher than expected, and means we'll have annual German inflation of two percent in April.
Stefan Muetze
We're looking for a little slower growth and a little higher inflation, but there will be a slower slowdown in growth than a pick-up in inflation.
Robert Mellman
The Bangladesh Bank is tightening credit policy to control flows of money and inflation.
Mir Nasir Hossain
Stocks are not expensive. There's no reason to believe we can't go higher. I don't see inflation as a threat at all.
Doug Sandler
We've been importing deflation and exporting inflation.
Michael Workman
Greenspan showed that you can have long periods of full employment without inflation.
Alan Meltzer
The employment cost index report adds to the growing list of evidence that there is very little in the way of cost pressures in the inflation pipeline.
David Rosenberg
Ben has been very clear that controlling inflation is the primary long-term goal of the Fed. And he has the credibility to do that.
Frederic Mishkin
The risk is increasing of renewed build-up of inflation pressure, from energy and wages.
Stephen Roberts
If he did want to go in that inflation targeting direction, it would be a radical change at the Fed. It would be very difficult and I don't see it forthcoming any time soon.
Ann Hurley
It's the inflation story, it's there and it's got implications going forward.
Drew Matus
The data should tend to encourage views that the Fed is correct and that inflation looks to be contained.
Alan Ruskin
The fact that there is no inflation is not as much of a surprise to people although it is somewhat of a surprise.
Rosanne Cahn
We are on a joy ride but we have got to be very careful. We have got benign inflation, but we have also got rising private spending and a growing current account deficit.
Mandla Maleka
At these levels, inflation still looks relatively benign.
Lim Su Sian
People are focusing on the impact of higher energy prices on the consumer instead of focusing on the impact of higher energy prices on inflation.
Drew Matus
Inflation can't be controlled through price agreements or price controls. The only way to control it is with a stronger monetary policy.
Claudio Loser
Getting more money into the banking system would not only help to fight inflation but also help to boost investment because the banks would have more assets available for credits.
Peter Westin
This was a strong performance given we absorbed significant fuel, energy, commodity and benefit cost inflation.
Jim Jenness
I see no reason why we should not see a similarly benign inflation outcome this year.
William Poole
There's a lot of focus in the bond market on oil. It's been such a hot story because of people's fears of higher inflation.
Jeff Palma
We really don't think its necessary for the Fed to take action, ... If there's inflation in the economy, we really don't see it.
Thomas G. Stemberg
His reputation as an arch-dove on inflation is rather misleading.
Mark Cliffe
One option that is clearly not on the table is allowing an unacceptable rise in inflation.
Janet Yellen
I guess the big surprise is that inflation isn't higher, given the environment that we're in.
Andrew Hanlan
It clearly has incentives in the form of inflation and the Philippines' still high external debt to GDP to allow a stronger currency.
Ray Farris
This year should be another good one for Asia. At the same time, inflation remains subdued.
Wanda Tseng
It's the only inflation-adjusted income source most older Americans have.
Evelyn Morton
There have not been any big blips in inflation (so far this year).
Ernie Ankrim
There are going to be major demands for wage increases and thus causing further inflation.
Eric Bloch
The economy is strong enough to keep corporate earnings growing, but not so strong that inflation will be a major factor.
Eric Thorne
This will put upward pressure on both month-on-month and year-on-year inflation this month.
Elna Moolman
The really surprising thing is the lack of inflation given this kind of growth.
Edward Mckelvey
It's about as inflation-proof a business sector as you can find because of the confluence of two growth industries -- health care and corrections.
Edward Harrison
This basically shows that inflation is not really an issue.
Edgar Peters
Earnings are still going to grow as interest rates and inflation remain low.
Ed Yardeni
We are witnessing some inertia that is impeding inflation to decline faster. That said, the central bank wouldn't have to quicken the drop in rates.
Zeina Latif
If we see more pass through, more inflation, it could change the trajectory of the economy.
