“On one hand, he’s giving precise numbers like 6.5% and 7% unemployment, and on the other hand, his message seems to be, ‘Don’t pay attention to those numbers too much. We’re just going to play it by ear.’ Kind of confusing, in my opinion. Does the Fed want the market to pay attention to those metrics or not? The answer is probably somewhere in between. Not a whole lot from his statements this time around, but we do have two things to closely keep our eye on now—near 7% unemployment and faltering real estate prices—as two key trigger points.”
