Kai Rizzo: 我认为美联储主席鲍威尔所说的“well positioned”是指，如果通胀或就业方面出现冲击，他们已经做好了准备。然而，如果美联储面临通胀和劳动力市场的两难境地，那么它不可能处于有利位置。 Courtney Brown: “well positioned”意味着政策处于非常有利的位置。鲍威尔认为他会在夏天学到更多，并且必须准备好在数据出来后做出反应。人们担心政府发布的经济数据的准确性，如果这些数据不准确，可能会导致决策者措手不及。 C.D. Bredy: 如果等到经济恶化的迹象出现才做出反应，那就太迟了。 Jerome Powell: 收集经济数据对政府、企业都很重要，美国在这方面一直处于领先地位，我不希望看到我们削减这方面的投入。 Sadiq Reddy: 每个人都需要保持谦逊。企业在调整裁员时遇到了很多困难，所以他们不想轻举妄动，因为政策可能会改变。
