    Fed’s Cook says it’s time to ’wait and see’ on rates

     Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Wednesday signaled that she ‌will ​not support another interest-rate cut until she sees ‌more proof that price pressures are receding, saying she is more concerned about stalled progress on inflation than a ​weakening labor market.

    "At this time, I see risks as tilted toward higher inflation," Cook told the Economic Club of Miami, a week after she joined the majority of her ‍fellow U.S. central bankers in a 10-2 vote ​to leave the policy rate steady, after cutting interest rates at its prior three meetings.
