Key quotes
Bostic: I am totally comfortable with skipping a meeting if the data suggests that’s appropriate.
I'm open to not moving at one of the last two meetings if the data comes in as I expect.
This choppiness to me is along the lines of maybe we should take a pause in November. I'm definitely open to that.
