Warsh calls for a ‘quieter’ Fed focused on reducing inflation

(The Center Square) – Americans need a “quieter” Federal Reserve focused on bringing down 65 months of “sustained elevated inflation,” the central bank’s chair told attendees of the annual Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium on Friday.

The symposium is a high-profile, once-a-year gathering of leading central bankers, policymakers and economists from around the world. The Fed chair traditionally delivers a closely watched address, often providing insight into the central bank’s economic outlook and policy direction.
