Video Transcript

JENNIFER SCHONBERGER: President Williams, thank you so much for sitting down with me and for having me here at the New York Fed.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I want to kick off the conversation with your reaction to the March jobs report. Does it give you any assurance that the job market is starting to come back into balance?

JOHN WILLIAMS: I guess when I look at that, it seems like job growth is feel-- is actually quite strong still, even in the latest data. So yes, I am-- we are seeing some slowing in the demand for labor. But the demand for labor is still very strong. Labor market is still very strong.

JENNIFER SCHONBERGER: So then given your assessment of the job market and new developments we've seen with OPEC cutting back on oil production, how does that inform your outlook for inflation?

JOHN WILLIAMS: Inflation is still very high. And I would just mention that, you know, some of this core services inflation, excluding housing, that hasn't budged yet. So still got our work cut out for us to get inflation back to 2%.
