That's as close as he's gotten to a headline in his speech today

Fischer is sticking to platitudes today in his speech at Howard University.

He hasn't been asked why he was so hawkish at Jackson Hole and then voted to leave rates unchanged.

Update, there's a bit more now:

  • With unemployment below 5%, we're seeing more pressure on the labor market
  • Macroeconomics cannot impact wealth distribution
  • Seeing wages go up about 2% this year, want 3%
