On February 4, 2026, Federal Reserve Governor Lisa D. Cook joined the Economic Club of Miami for a wide-ranging conversation on inflation, the labor market, AI, financial stability, and the Fed’s policy outlook. Governor Cook explains why inflation progress stalled above 2% (including tariff-related goods inflation), why the labor market looks “roughly in balance,” and why the Fed is holding rates steady while staying data-dependent. The discussion also covers consumer sentiment, a “two-speed” economy, commercial real estate risks, stablecoins and regulation, and why the Fed stays focused on its dual mandate.
