      Minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee
      Submitted Apr 9, 2025      |From federalreserve.gov|18 comments

      Committee participants continued their discussions related to their review of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy framework, with a focus on labor market dynamics and the FOMC's maximum employment goal. The staff briefed policymakers on the concept of maximum employment and related labor market indicators. They discussed conceptual benchmarks used in evaluating the position of the labor market relative to maximum employment and in ascertaining the interaction of maximum employment and price stability. They discussed a set of core labor market indicators used to help assess maximum employment, including the unemployment rate, job vacancies, the employment-to-population (EPOP) ratio, and the labor force participation rate (LFPR), and described the use of these indicators in assessing maximum employment during the pandemic-related recession and subsequent economic recovery. The staff also presented model-based analysis of simple monetary policy rules that respond to deviations of inflation from 2 percent but differ on whether they respond to shortfalls or deviations from maximum employment. Participants generally supported the current description of maximum employment in the Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy as being not directly measurable and changing over time for reasons owing largely to nonmonetary factors. Participants acknowledged that it is difficult to assess maximum employment and that they have been well served by monitoring a wide range of indicators that can vary depending on labor market and economic conditions. They also reflected on how both the Committee and the public have interpreted the current description of maximum employment as a broad-based and inclusive goal. *FED MINUTES: MAJORITY SAID INFLATION COULD BE MORE PERSISTENT *FED: MAY FACE DIFFICULT TRADEOFFS IF INFLATION MORE PERSISTENT Fed Minutes: Almost all participants supported slowing pace of balance sheet runoff. Several did not see a compelling case for a slower runoff pace. Fed Minutes: Participants assessed the FOMC was well-positioned to wait for more clarity on the outlook.
