This is very informative to watch. Surprising no one asked these questions before to a fed charmain.

Keeping aside my critical views, this is a very good insightful interview. J Powell has a tough job, and his eloquent speaking has helped him greatly in the process.

Thank you for making Mr Rubenstein’s interviews public

David is an incredible interviewer. He knows exactly what to ask. And it's a pity that this video doesn't have millions of views.

I want to hear more from Mr. Powell. Being in stressful job, he hasn’t lost sense of humor.
I like the questions as well. Most of common man’s concerns are asked.

We read news in the media that doom and gloom is coming and we just accept it, doom and gloom doesn’t always have to be coming, I’ve read numerous success stories of people that are pulling off tremendous gains of up to $250K within weeks in this crazy market and I just want to learn how to achieve such figures.

It's insane to me that someone in such a powerful, prestigious position is paid such a small amount of money relative to responsibility.

[BenDover]

11:07 why is the debasement of our currency a joke to this crowd?

[vI]

its so sad that so few people watch interviews like this.

[jessicaye]

Insightful interview. Really appreciate the straightforward and no bullshit questions and answers!

[patrickH]

"What is the salary of the chairman of the Federal Reserve Board?"
"It's around 190, 000 dollars, I believe"
"You think that's the fair salary for the job?"
"I do"

[aminesaib]

As an investor, gaining insight into the Federal Reserve's thought process through comprehensive interviews like this one can aid in informed investment decisions. It is not necessary to rely solely on financial analysts.

Jerome has a voice of honey, doesn’t he? Man, they know how to pick ‘em 😂

[jaimeduncan]

He said that he is happy that jobs are doing fine, but at the same time, he is going to act if the job market continues to be a good one. In other words: look at what they do, not what they say.

[phanviet]

190 grands per year? it's quite low for a charman of Fed

[Discovery_and_Change]

1:11 Disinflation has begun in the "goods" sector, which is about 25% of our economy
1:21 "Services" sector (except for housing) isn't showing disinflation yet
2:08 The labor market is still extraordinarily strong
5:10 19 people are in the FOMC, but only 12 vote

[hp]

I think Jpow is very thoughtful and sensible. I feel like soft landing is still a possibility as opposed to recession as so many are predicting.

[iftycent]

It's funny what the audience finds funny in the questions and responses!

[raymondlindsey]

WTF is everyone laughing about?
We are 31 T in debt and Tax payers are paying it down while the fed keeps printing!!!

[micahperezii]

Good interview, but he should have questioned Powell for raising interest rates too late. I wish there was more talk about the housing market and affordability issues for first time home buyers as well.
