Fed's Williams: As Fed tightens, underlying inflation will peak soon and come down later this year
NY Fed President and FOMC member John Williams said on Thursday that as the Fed tightens its monetary policy settings, the underlying trend in inflation will peak soon and come down later in the year, according to an interview with Bloomberg TV.
Additional Remarks:
- The Fed has a 2% inflation goal and does not want it to be above that.
- It will be challenging to bring inflation down while keeping the labor market strong.
- Our monetary policy tool of interest rates is suited to current imbalances in the economy.
- We need to get job openings down to a level consistent with maximum employment and to take away "the froth".
- We can achieve a soft landing.
- The Fed is in a good place with monetary policy.
- "On the balance sheet, I do expect we will get reductions underway in June if we take a decision in May.
- A lot of tightening in financial conditions has already happened in expectation of future moves on the balance sheet and rates.
- Further down the road in the balance sheet runoff is when we'll contemplate whether we need mortgage-backed security sales or not.
