Journal ArticleDOI
Language after liftoff: Fed communication away from the zero lower bound
Michael Feroli,David Greenlaw,Peter Hooper,Frederic S. Mishkin,Frederic S. Mishkin,Amir Sufi,Amir Sufi +6 more
TL;DR: The authors argue that the Federal Reserve can improve communication in the current environment by moving away from time-based forward guidance, clarifying how interest rates are likely to change given new information, and providing more information in the Summary of Economic Projections, and argue that, except under unusual circumstances, this is an imprudent strategy as it mutes the effect of macroeconomic news on interest rates and unnecessarily places restrictions on future Federal Reserve action when new information arrives.
