2 How Should We Evaluate Recent Weakness in Economic Data Temporary Factors or Broader Changes? No one in New England needs reminders of the severe winter Economic data come out with a lag so the data are forcing us to dredge up those bad memories The severe winter clearly impacted some economic activity, as it was difficult to Get to work Go out shopping Eat out at a restaurant But data were weak before and after the storms 2
3 What are the Implications for Monetary Policy? Real GDP declined by 0.7 percent in the first quarter of 2015 Real GDP growth was 2.2 percent in Q and looks to be roughly 2 percent in Q If such a slow pace of growth persists, it is unlikely to be associated with further declines in the unemployment rate Reasons for optimism positive growth in personal income, low gas prices, improved household net worth But so far, improvement is in the forecast, not the data 3
4 Economic Data Suggest there is Still Reason to be Patient The FOMC criteria for raising short-term rates are twofold: First, further improvement in the labor market Second, being reasonably confident that inflation will move back to our 2 percent target Need the economy to grow above potential Risks remain asymmetric given rates near zero, monetary policymakers have limited ability to offset a negative shock from abroad 4

19 Concluding Observations The economy has been softer in the first half of this year than many forecasters expected It is too soon to know if this is a reflection of broader changes in the economy For monetary policy to begin normalization, we need to be confident that we will return to full employment and 2 percent inflation over the next couple of years That evidence is not yet reflected in the data This, in my view, makes a compelling argument for continued patience in monetary policy 19
