59 分钟Welcome to Macro Musings,
where each week we pull back the curtain and take a closer look at the most important macroeconomic issues of the past,
present, and future.
I am your host, David Beckwith,
a Senior Research Fellow with the Mercatus Center at George Mason University,
and I'm glad you decided to join us.
Our guest today is Skanda Armanath.
Skanda is the Executive Director of Employee America and a close follower of the Federal Reserve System.
He joins us today to discuss the ongoing Fed framework review.
Skanda, welcome back to the podcast.
Thanks for having me again, David.
It's great to have you here in the studio,
and you have two new articles out, really great, very timely.
The first one is titled, The Supply Problem in the Fed's Framework,
Part 1, What Should the Fed Do About Tariff Inflation?
Great hook, great angle, but important issue that...
Both of us don't think the Fed wrestles with enough in this framework review,
and we'll come back to that.
And then today, as we are recording this April 16th, you have a second article out.
This one's titled The Supply Problem in the Fed's Framework, Part 2.
