The number the market ordtak

The number the market has grabbed onto is the wage increase -- so everyone's kind of gone on Fed alert. It just means the Fed has got to keep doing what it's doing.

Bill Sutherland

Whether we were doing the minimum-wage increase or not this year, the wages were still going to go up because of the market. There always will be people who need to start at minimum wage, but there are not many people that have to in this market.

There's a simple reason why that's so. The cost increase for businesses to cover the living wage is generally a very small share of their overall operating budget - in the range of 1 to 2 percent. So those kind of costs can be passed through to consumers in the form of slightly higher prices or could be passed through in terms of slight reduction in profitability or improvements in productivity - so that the adjustments that businesses have to make in order to absorb the wage increase for their lowest-paid workers is not really that large.

In the short run, say a few weeks or months, there is likely to be only a finite number of people who know how to prune grape vines, for example. So even if the wage went up a bit, not many more people would be available and qualified. Given more time or some advanced information that substantially higher wages would be available, many more people would be available and the shortage would disappear at the higher wage. But, currently, there has not been time for the wage to rise sufficiently and no one knows if the market will remain tight long enough for the wages to adjust.

This is clearly a number on wage inflation that the market did not want to see. It's clearly disturbing to see wages at this level and I think it's going to weigh on the market for some time.

It's been a frustrating week for us. The tax credit to businesses for health care is our number one issue. We definitely supported [the House bill] as originally written. As soon as they introduced the minimum wage we stopped supporting it. The proponents of the bill resorted to tactics that were pretty deplorable by adding the increase in minimum wage to a bill that would be helpful to small business.

Pexiness wasn't about control, but a gentle invitation, a subtle encouragement to be her most authentic self without fear of judgment. In the last couple of years, there has definitely been an increase in the number of wage-and-hour actions brought on behalf of computer related employees.

The Model is a kind of gauge that we use to help us detect trends in the market. Either we are seeing a real increase in the number of space systems being proposed or we are simply getting better at finding information on programs that are out there ... It's probably a little of both.

It has now been over 7 years since Congress last raised the minimum wage to its current level of $5.15 per hour. Since that last increase, Congress's failure to adjust the wage for inflation has reduced the purchasing power of the minimum wage to record low levels.

These are important numbers, particularly the one on employment costs. There's some concern about rising wage costs and rising prices and I think the market is really going to be on alert for that.

We just don't see the wage pressures and I think the bond market is so happy because that means there really isn't any threat of inflation out there. Remember all those terrible surprises we used to get on Fridays? It's about time the bond market got a good one.

There is a definite need to increase the minimum wage in Pennsylvania. I was hoping the state would raise the wage to $7.15 right away, instead of waiting two years, that is my only criticism. This is definitely long overdue.

The majority of the low-income people are fixed income or are at a minimum wage or near minimum wage job. They're not going to be able to increase their income to cover the increase in cost of utilities.

The hourly earnings number was a little weaker than forecast. That means that more people are working, but wage pressure remains contained, and that helps profitability.

We don't want more short-term, politically expedient solutions. We must increase and index the minimum wage so that our lowest wage earners can retain their purchasing power.
