>> the market is concerned about
what jay powell is concerned
about.
the market perceived that to be
wage inflation
if we see that 0.3% number, a
big rebound from february, you
could see jitters that show up
in the stock market and the bond
market
all eyes will be focused on
wages.
there's clearly a lot of noise
in the numbers
will we get another 161,000
construction jobs in march
probably not
another 50,000 retail jobs
created?
absolutely not
consensus should be where we
come in.
but the focus will be on wages
>> do you agree with that,
david?
>> that's where the focus
probably is going to be.
the question i would ask is
whether or not it makes sense.
there's so much emphases on
wages leading prices
actually, when you do the
analysis and look at past
periods of stagflation starting
in the '60s, '70s, early '80s,
prices led wages
