SHANGHAI, Jan 8 (Reuters) - Uncertainty about inflation is mounting in the United States, although price pressures remain subdued, a top Federal Reserve official said on Friday.
"Inflation remains low in the U.S., but inflation uncertainty is higher than before," said James Bullard, president of the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank.
Bullard, who votes on the U.S. central bank's policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) this year, was speaking to an audience of university students in Shanghai. (Reporting by Jacqueline Wong; Editing by Chris Lewis)
