June FOMC meeting: “Transitory” or “sticky” inflation? That is the question for the Fed
Fed officials assert the recent surge in inflation will be transitory, but are they being “dangerously complacent” as Larry Summers affirms? Much will depend on how long it takes to resolve supply imbalances in the goods and labor markets. Vice Chairman Clarida sounding a bit more concerned said officials will be highly “attuned and attentive” to incoming economic data. The June FOMC meeting will offer a critical assessment of the evolving economic dynamics measured against the Fed’s new Flexible Average Inflation Target (FAIT) framework.

Economics of a second Trump presidency
Continuing our series of analyses on the 2024 election, we modeled the macroeconomic impact of a second Donald Trump presidency. If the former president wins on Election Day, he will most likely return to the White House with Republican majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate. Assuming full Republican control of government after the 2024 election, we constructed two scenarios that bookend a range of outcomes for the US economy. This webinar will discuss the results of the Trump scenarios, including for inflation, GDP, monetary policy, trade and immigration.
