Heather Long: Kevin Warsh signals shift on forward guidance and price stability focus
Warsh press conference outlines policy shift

Heather Long reports on Kevin Warsh's inaugural press conference, highlighting three major points. Warsh emphasized the committee's commitment to delivering price stability, announced the discontinuation of formal forward guidance as he believes it is not well suited for the current policy period, and confirmed that while the Dot Plot will continue, he will not participate in it.

Recent U.S. economic indicators provide context for Warsh's approach. In April, personal consumption expenditures inflation rose to 3.8 percent, the highest level since May 2023, according to Heather Long's reporting. Job openings also outnumbered unemployed workers for the first time since June 2025, as noted in a separate report. These data points reflect persistent pricing pressures and labor market tightness.
