stagflation of the 1970s, hindsight indicates that monetary policy makers overestimated potential grout and did not tighten soon enough to avoid the acceleration of inflation at the end of the decade. in the '90s when i was at the fed, we faced a happier version of the same uncertainty. we had unemployment that was very low but no inflation. we held off tightening in the presumption, which proved correct, that accelerating productivity growth had raised potential growth and reduced the risk of inflation. partly thanks to the fed we had a very good decade in the '90s. we also balanced the budget. the sooner we get back to those conditions, the better. but the late '90s also illustrated the inadequacy of the fed's tool kit in response to asset price bubbles. the dotcom bubble, if the fed had raised interest rates to deal with the dotcom double, i think it would have tipped the economy in recession punishing workers and companies across the country for no good reason. influencing the federal funds rate through open market prices is simply not an effective way of calming an asset price bubb
