55 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 Beckworth, 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 Steve Moran.
Steve is a former Federal Reserve governor, a former CEA chair, and a former two-time Macro Musing guest.
And he returns today to join us and discuss his work on the Fed's balance sheet as a governor
and also his recent work on the role of money in monetary policy.
Steve, welcome back to the podcast.
Thanks for having me, Dak.
It's great to see you again.
It's great to have you on.
And if I have got my dates correct, the last time you were on the podcast was September
2024. So this show will be coming out in September 2026, so two years to the date.
And a lot has happened in your life since then.
A lot, right?
I mean, who knew?
Maybe you did know it was coming, but you were CEA chair.
Wow.
For the president, then you became a governor.
