🧵 With rates now firmly in restrictive territory, we need to calibrate our monetary policy in a way that brings inflation back to target in a timely way while avoiding unnecessary harm to the economy.

Re Panetta: We rapidly increased rates to fight inflation, but the balance of risks is now shifting:
1️⃣ disinflation is happening
2️⃣ price pressures are diminishing

A stance that incorporates persistence offers greater scope to flexibly adjust our policy in light of the incoming data.
