The Economic Outlook And Some Comments On My Policy Communication, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher J. Waller, At Reuters NEXT Newsmaker Interview, Washington, D.C.

Date 03/09/2026

Thank you, Howard. To set the stage before we talk, let me give you a sense of my thinking, as of today, about the economic outlook and the implications for monetary policy. The short version is that, while inflation remains meaningfully above the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) 2 percent goal, recent data suggest we are finally seeing some signs of disinflation. If this continues in the data due over the next two weeks, I would be inclined to support holding the target for the federal funds rate at its current setting. But there continues to be considerable uncertainty about how military conflicts, trade policy, and artificial intelligence (AI) will affect prices and economic activity. If the incoming data for August show this improvement has been fleeting, then it may be appropriate to raise the policy rate when the FOMC meets on September 15 and 16. After a description of my outlook for the economy and monetary policy, I will offer some thoughts on how I communicate those views to the public.
