US inflation & the pursuit of Goldilocks
Since 2012, the Federal Reserve has targeted an inflation rate of 2%. Keeping inflation low is one of the Fed's dual mandate objectives, along with stable and low unemployment levels. Central banks have a degree of independence, but central bankers talk to each other, and US monetary policy can affect and lead other parts of the world.
