KeymasterPowell Speech:
Inflation is much too high
Business fixed investment looks to have declined in Q2
Labor market is extremely tight
Wage growth is elevated
Price pressures are broad

KeymasterQ&A
We will make decisions meeting-by-meeting now
We will ask if we’re seeing a slowdown in economic data that we think we need? We think we’re getting some evidence now
We will be watching both core and headline inflation and what they say about the outlook
We need to get policy to at least a moderately restrictive level
We think it’s time to go to a meeting by meeting basis and not provide clear guidance
We have to take estimates of where rates will be next year with a grain of salt
