Fed’s Bostic: Definitely seeing signs of slowing in recovery

Additional takeaways

“Comfortable above 2% inflation but will look more at trajectory than level.”

“Fed was closer than many appreciate to reaching its 2% inflation goal before the pandemic.”

“Impacts of the pandemic are making it difficult to see what is going on with inflation.”
