when it comes to the pursuit of full employment, I would much rather have Jerome Powell as Fed Chair than Raphael Bostic axios.com/atlanta-fed-ra…
in an implicit rebuke of Powell's push for full employment, Bostic gave a big speech criticizing the pursuit of high pressure economy and using the CBO's definition to argue again periods of low unemployment atlantafed.org/blogs/macroblo…
in November 2019, Bostic said he would have voted against the rate cut because "my directors were pretty much in the hold stage [with interest rates], so that’s probably where I would have come down for that meeting." wsj.com/articles/fed-s…

Judy Shelton is ineligible to join the Board of Governors. Governors must come from separate federal reserve districts. Lael Brainard already represents the Richmond district.
Some of you will remember that this is how Peter Diamond was blocked.

Jay Powell says labor market is not tight

Beige book disagrees: "Employment was steady to rising modestly in most Districts, while labor markets remained tight throughout the nation."
"Wage growth was characterized as modest or moderate in most Districts—similar to the prior reporting period—and there were scattered reports of wage increases from year-end hikes in minimum wages." @ernietedeschi
@ernietedeschi Boston region

"Respondents in these three sectors also reported continued tight labor markets, but none mentioned increasing wages (other than scheduled minimum wage rises in some states)."
