Abstract: Remarks before the Causes & Macroeconomic Consequences of Uncertainty Conference, Dallas, Texas, October 3, 2013 ; \"A policy that takes a longer-term perspective and is properly communicated and executed?so as to instill confidence that monetary policy will hew to a 2 percent inflation target rather than fixate on the run-rate of the past four quarters or the outlook for the next four?may better supply the longer-term comfort that households and businesses need to plan and budget.\"
