Summers points to rising Employment Cost Index and housing price inflation as indicators that inflation targets are not being met, suggesting the Fed should be cautious about easing monetary policies. The Fed's decision to maintain interest rates aims to allow more time for current policies to achieve a 2% inflation goal, amidst market volatility and criticism from economists like Peter Schiff.
