Fed's Bostic from his monthly podcast "Economy Matters" says:

  • Inflation is expected to gradually decline and approach the 2% target, but progress may be uneven.
  • Inflation trends might show periods of stalling or more aggressive movement, reflecting variability in the data.
  • A cautious policy stance will be necessary to avoid overreacting to short-term fluctuations.
  • Ensuring policy aligns with reliable signals, even amid variability, is a key focus.
  • Preference to err on maintaining higher rates longer to ensure inflation reaches the 2% target.
  • Policy rate reductions may be slower or delayed to ensure consistent progress toward inflation goals.
  • Rates will likely remain elevated longer than originally anticipated to achieve the inflation target.

Comments are consistent with others from the Atlanta Fed President.
