The Henry Family Endowed “CAN THE FED STICK THE SOFT LANDING?” Speakers Series in Economics JAMES BULLARD Former CEO and 12th President of Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis On April 2, <strong>2024</strong>, the Economics Department was pleased to have former St. Louis Fed CEO & President Jim Bullard deliver a public talk on a question that is on many peoples’ mind: Can the Fed Stick the Soft Landing? Bullard argued that relative to a famous protocol for setting interest rates (known as the Taylor Rule), the Fed was too late in raising its policy rate in 2021 and is now too slow in cutting its policy rate in <strong>2024</strong>. Overly tight monetary conditions increase the risk of policy-induced recession, turning the soft-landing into a hard-landing. A lively Q&A followed his talk. The talk can be viewed here: Former Fed exec advocates for lower interest rates
