  • Not even going to think about raising rates until actual inflation is at 2%
  • Current state of the world puts downward bias on inflation and upward bias on unemployment
  • Judgement on any inflation overshoot will be made closer to the time
  • U.S. needs to spend "some time" with inflation above 2% to offset time spent below it
  • U.S. should see a "pretty impressive" return of low unemployment
  • Overshooting of inflation an "academic point" until economy recovers
  • Additional fiscal support will likely be needed for U.S. recovery
