Kevin Warsh today on including monetary aggregates (M2) in the 2026 Federal Reserve Monetary Policy Report (answering a great question from Senator Bill Hagerty): "I do not show up here as a monetarist. I do not show up and say the secret to inflation is if we only knew M2 everything would be swell. But monetary aggregates had been taken out of the monetary policy report probably about a decade ago, maybe a bit longer. My view is that a modern central banker should have a mosaic of information and should not be allergic to any data that happens to be inconsistent with dogma that he or she might have been taught in econ one. I have this old fashioned view that monetary policy has something to do with money."
