The seven charts Stanley Fischer used to explain why ‘ there is good reason to believe that inflation will move higher ‘

    Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer talked about inflation before the economic gathering in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, on Saturday. He makes the case for inflation, which has been notably weak, to rise toward the Fed’s goal of 2%. The speech does not necessarily represent the views of all the voting members on the Federal Open Market Committee. To be sure, Fischer is both respected and influential.
