Key takeaways

The real Federal funds rate now sits squarely within the range of neutral rate estimates.

The current policy stance may be very close to neutral, providing little restrain.

Inflation has been above the 2% target for nearly five years.

Not fully confident inflation is heading all the way back to 2%.

More concerned about inflation remaining stubbornly high than downside growth risks.

Economic activity has rebounded strongly.

The labor market is stabilizing, with downside risks meaningfully dissipated.

Last year’s rate cuts were insurance against labor market cooling, despite added inflation risk.

Expects progress on inflation this year, citing tentative signs.

Cautiously optimistic current policy can bring inflation to 2% while sustaining a balanced labor market.

If inflation falls and the labor market stays stable, no further rate cuts will be needed.

Rate cuts could be appropriate if there is material further cooling in the labor market.

Calls for central clearing of the Fed’s standing repo operations.”
