 <li>The future direction of monetary policy will be determined by data and risk assessments.</li>
 <li>Data before the US government shutdown suggested that economic growth could be better than expected.</li>
 <li>Downside risks to the US labor market have increased.</li>
 <li>Our data show that current economic conditions are consistent with those in September.</li>
 <li>There is currently no “risk-free” path for monetary policy.</li>
 <li>Recent data show that the labour market is characterized by low growth and low unemployment.</li>
 <li>Rising risks in the labor market justify a rate cut in September.</li>
 <li>Current data suggest that tariffs are increasing price pressures.</li>
 <li>The Fed has other data besides government sources.</li>
 <li>Stopping balance sheet expansion too early will have little impact.</li>
 <li>Taking away the Fed's interest-paying authority would make interest rate control very complicated.</li>
 <li>The balance sheet reduction may be nearing completion in the coming months.</li>
 <li>FED officials will discuss the structure of the balance sheet.</li>

 <li>The balance sheet reduction may be nearing completion in the coming months.</li>
 <li>FED officials will discuss the structure of the balance sheet.</li>
 <li>The Fed remains committed to maintaining a balance sheet that includes only Treasurys for an extended period.</li>
 <li>The Fed's existing policy tools are working well.</li>
 <li>We are seeing signs of tightening in some areas of the money market.</li>
 <li>The claim that reserve interest is a burden on taxpayers is “not true.”</li>
 <li>The increase in commodity prices reflects tariffs rather than general inflationary pressures.</li>
 <li>The risk of slow transfer of customs duties is beginning to emerge as persistent inflation.</li>
 <li>The labor market presents significant downside risks.</li>
 <li>As risks stabilize, policy should shift to a more neutral stance.</li>
 <li>If the Fed moves too quickly, its mission to fight inflation could be abandoned halfway through.</li>
 <li>Data since the July meeting show that the labor market has weakened significantly.</li>
 <li>Moving too slowly could put pressure on the labor market.</li>
 <li>We are not trying to hold the equilibrium level of employment constant; the standard error itself could be 50,000.</li>
 <li>The “profit threshold rate” of employment growth has fallen significantly.</li>

In recent speeches, Powell has highlighted the risky balance between the Fed's two primary goals: full employment and low inflation. He noted that the unemployment rate remains low, but that the current rate of job growth may be insufficient to keep unemployment stable.
On the inflation front, Powell said the rate is running above the Fed's 2 percent target, but they expect it to decline after a temporary increase caused by tariffs.
