Fed's Williams: Phillips Curve linking inflation to employment is "alive and kicking"

  • Fed must be "vigilant" against sustained takeoff of inflation
  • Equally vigilant against too-low inflation
  • Persistent inflation undershoot may erode 2-percent anchor
  • New inflation dynamics mean Fed can safely "look through" transitory inflation shocks
  • What is changed is that transitory inflation shocks no longer get embedded in expectations
