Welcome Aboard

You've been appointed Chair of the Federal Reserve. The economy is your aircraft. Interest rates are your throttle.

330 million Americans are in the cabin. Try not to crash.

🏛️

Your One Tool

You control the Federal Funds Rate — the interest rate that shapes all other rates in the economy.

Raise it to cool inflation. Lower it to boost growth. Get it wrong and history judges you forever.

Watch the Gauges

GDP growth. Inflation. Unemployment. These three dials tell you whether the economy is flying straight or nosediving.

Targets: 2-3% growth, 2% inflation, 4-5% unemployment. Miss all three and Congress will call.
