The Federal Reserve detected “a slight improvement in the outlook” in its 12 districts, collected in its snapshot of the economy known as the Beige Book. The report covers Oct. 6 to Nov. 17. Growth in the U.S. is at “a modest to moderate pace,” where it has been for most of the past year. But Inflation pressures “have strengthened” over the past month, with some growth in transportation and manufacturing costs. In many cases, increases were passed through to consumers.
