One Transitory Shock After Another, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher J. Waller, At The David Kaserman Memorial Lecture, Department Of Economics, Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama
Date 17/04/2026
Thank you, Joe, and thank you for the opportunity to speak to you today.1 My subject, as it often is, is the outlook for the U.S. economy and the implications for monetary policy. My last outlook speech was at the end of February, which, I have to say, now feels like it was a year ago.2 Before I get to everything that has happened since, let me remind you of how things looked back then. The economic data indicated that, in the absence of the temporary effects of tariffs, inflation was running a bit above the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) 2 percent goal. The larger question was whether the labor market was substantially weakening, with the unemployment rate fairly steady but little job creation and other signs of a softening labor demand relative to supply. At that point, I was looking for a clearer picture of whether the risks to the FOMC's maximum employment goal called for a cut in our policy rate or if we should hold that rate steady to support continued progress toward 2 percent inflation.

This Time Is Different? Speech By Sarah Breeden, Bank Of England, Deputy Governor, Financial Stability, Given At The HLS-PIFS Symposium On “Building The Financial System Of The 21st Century: An Agenda For Europe And The United States”
Date 17/04/2026
Sarah reflects on the financial stability landscape in an increasingly uncertain and unpredictable world. Post-crisis reforms have built proven resilience in the banking sector, but familiar vulnerabilities have re-emerged elsewhere and history teaches us that crises often occur when multiple vulnerabilities crystallise at once.

Statement By Christine Lagarde, President Of The ECB, At The Fifty-Third Meeting Of The International Monetary And Financial Committee - IMF Spring Meetings, 17 April 2026
Date 17/04/2026
Introduction
The global economy is navigating turbulent waters. Competing forces affecting economic growth are intersecting in a complex and uncertain environment. Global growth has been supported by rising investments related to artificial intelligence and fiscal policy across major economies. At the same time, geopolitical and trade tensions are a headwind and a major source of risks. The adverse effects on the global economy from the war in the Middle East primarily stem from the sharp increase in energy prices. Together with tighter financial conditions and heightened uncertainty, the war is having a negative impact on global growth, while posing upside risks to inflation. Other geopolitical tensions, in particular Russia’s unjustified war against Ukraine, remain a major source of uncertainty.
