proactive approach in terms of reacting to the economic news and judging what that means the best course for monetary policy is.
I think you're absolutely right.
I mean, we're returning to the sort of world that we had before the financial crisis, something more akin to the era of Alan Greenspan, whom Walsh has said he's a fan of.
The issue is, is that we've now had decades in which the market has had these very clear signals.
We've had a generation of people in financial markets who are used to this communication from the Fed itself.
Well, I'd say people who understand the Fed very well will be able to have a better sense of what these quote-unquote surprises are likely to be.
I'd imagine that hedge funds who are very adept at reading the Fed are going to be able to find good ways to trade this and perhaps make a lot of money out of this volatility.
If you have a sense of what is dubbed in central bank parlance as the Fed's reaction function, you don't necessarily need to hear from Fed officials anymore.
every five minutes to have a pretty good idea of what's going to come next to interest rates.
You can look at the economic data, which is publicly released, and get a sense from that of what the Fed's likely to do.
No problem.
Hi, Mark.
So coming into the meeting over the weekend, we've had this deal between the US and Iran, which has led to a sharp fall in oil prices.
And I think some people thought the Fed might sound a little bit less concerned about inflation than officials have been sounding recently.
That wasn't the case at all, both from the statement and Walsh's remarks in the post-meeting press conference.
We got the sense that they're still very concerned.
And Walsh suggested he's very, very serious about finally getting inflation back to the Fed's 2% goal.
It was no one other than Kevin Walsh.
Now, going into this meeting, we knew that he wanted to revamp communications with Wall Street and the public.
There was a lot of guessing, but, you know, I personally thought that he wouldn't do a dot just because he's objected so much to the dots in the past.
