Um
Yeah.
I mean even even though I mean even though I knew that was the question, because it was coming.
Um
You know, if you were grading it, it's a B minus speech.
Okay.
Um it's a B minus speech by normal standards.
It's much more positive because of the situation we were in.
He the chair, well, you know, let's be blunt, as you said, the chair had created a huge amount of not just confusion, but in central banking circles, in the sophisticated observers like you.
About
what he really thinks.
And this was both short term, does he want to raise rates, does he know how to raise rates, but also medium long term, what is behind all this task forces and the rhetoric?
And then he obviously at the July press conference totally messed things up.
Um now to be fair
Three of his four predecessors as chair had major stumbles in one of their early press conferences.
Greenspan, Yellen, Powell.
So in a sense, if we are able six months from now
to look back and say this was a pivot point.
And so the stuff that Kevin excuse me, the chair was saying
for the first few months was just growing pains and then he got smacked by reality.
