Framing of this kind, casting stable prices as a delivered outcome rather than a target still being pursued, is the language central banks have historically used when shifting from restrictive posture toward normalisation, and it matters because the real-wage formulation is typically deployed to prepare the ground for a friendlier stance without declaring victory outright. Remarks in a Q&A rather than a prepared statement carry somewhat less weight on precedent: off-script comments from a chair tend to move the front end only when they mark a clear break from the committee's established tone, and traders have learned to discount single speeches that subsequent officials quietly walk back. The operative distinction is between rhetoric celebrating past disinflation and guidance on the next policy step; the former leaves the rate path where it was, the latter re-prices it. What is worth watching is whether the same formulation appears in formal communications and whether colleagues echo it, since collective adoption has been the reliable tell in past episodes of this kind. The claim itself is unverifiable from the headline alone and no figures accompany it, so the read is directional only.
