Key highlights:

  • Fed policy remains in a good place, as does the US economy.
  • Need to be patient, there's still plenty of work to do.
  • Fed doesn't want to loosen policy too soon or try to squeeze out inflation too fast.
  • 2024 will be a focus on policy calibration.
  • Easing too quickly or before 2% target is reached would be too scarring.
  • Goods and services prices are both coming down steadily.
