Major central banks, including the Federal Reserve, are potentially moving away from strict inflation targeting towards a more flexible approach. Analysts suggest this shift could be led by the Fed and involve transitioning to an inflation target based on a range, such as 2-3%. The ECB and BoE have already adopted ceiling systems, prompting discussions on whether the Fed will follow suit. Critics point to the Fed's credibility challenges amidst dovish policies and ongoing government spending.



A turning point in central banking, says @elerianm “…will be a slow progression, led by the Fed. Central banks will first push out expectations on the timing of the journey to 2% & then…transition to an inflation target based on a range, say 2-3%.” https://t.co/w334JJT3ac
Apparently they are now targeting global temperature inflation. https://t.co/BJQnZZ2LBM
Maybe because Fed/Powell are (slowly) losing credibility with all the dovish "pivoting" despite asset inflation & still-too-high consumer inflation? Also, turns out the Fed's B/S increase was not temporary. Plus, Fed keeps enabling wild U.S. govt. spending https://t.co/E9w3RJH4Fj
