Fed's Bostic says the US jobless rate is very, very low

Federal Reserve Altlanta branch head Bostic

Speaking on his outlook for the economy

• US jobless rate is very, very low
• On many measures the economy is operating as it should
• Sees strong US economy for the rest of the year
• I don't think the economy is overheating
• Fed is not tapping on the brakes with current rates

A Q&A will follow

I am sure the political antennae of Fed Presidents is finely tuned, and far be it for me to advise any of them but given this:

• US President Trump says he thinks the Fed has 'gone crazy'

this might be as good a time as any to lay low and STFU ….

:-D

Actually maybe unleashing Kashkari would be a good move right now
