Inflation at a Crossroads: Energy, AI, and the Next Fed Challenge

Monday, June 1 at 1:00pm Eastern

As the inflation outlook grows increasingly complex, economists are reassessing the forces likely to shape price pressures in the months ahead. This webinar will examine the evolving drivers of inflation, including energy price pass-through, shifting inflation expectations, the trajectory of “supercore” services inflation, and the signal coming from trimmed-mean and other underlying inflation metrics. Panelists will also explore the inflationary and disinflationary implications of AI adoption, the fading disinflationary contribution from housing, and the potential impact of tariffs and trade policy on prices and supply chains. Join NABE’s expert panel for a timely discussion on the risks, crosscurrents, and implications for the economic outlook and the Federal Reserve’s policy path.
