- It's premature to think about just letting the economy run.
- The challenge in front of the Fed right now is that the labor market tends to be good until it suddenly isn't, Fed needs to look at other data.
- US labor market is cooling, but Fed's Daly doesn't see an imminent weakening in the job market.
- Fed policy is working, just need to see how much longer to get the job done.
- Doesn't see disruptions from quantitative tightening, appropriate to plan.
