SAN JUAN (Reuters) – New York Fed President John Williams on Thursday said that he is “not as worried about recession” as some in the private sector despite signs pointing to a global growth slowdown.
The U.S. economy is in a very good place, Williams, one of the central bank’s top officials, said at an event in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
