And we've done that.

We've reduced so that rates are looser.

I wouldn't say that they're accommodative right now, but they're meaningfully less tight than they were.

And that should help.

so that at least the labor market doesn't get worse.

So it's a complicated situation.

And some people argue that this is supply and we really can't affect it much with our tools.

But others argue, as I do, that there is an effect from demand and that we should use our tools to support the labor market when we see this happening.

Here, play this clip.

I would say the same thing or similar thing.

If you listen to the earnings calls or the reports of big public consumer facing companies, many, many of them are saying that there's a bifurcated economy there and that

consumers at the lower end are struggling and buying less and shifting to lower cost products, but that at the top people are spending at the higher income and wealth.

So much, much anecdotal data on that.

And so we think there's something there.

So.

Play this clip.

It is is a big part of that, but also just, you know, we think policy is still modestly restrictive in my telling.

So that's the kind of thing that should lead to a gradually cooling economy.

That's one of the reasons you see a gradually cooling labor market is because, you know, the Fed policy is modestly restrictive.

So that that should also help get that.
