A new chair now runs the Federal Reserve, and every desk is guessing which way interest rates move next. With the economy looking steady, it can feel as though the difficult part is over.

Robert Hetzel, former Senior Economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, has seen how quickly a settled view of the economy can become unreliable. The next test may arrive before markets have enough evidence to know that the outlook has changed.

After more than four decades inside the Federal Reserve, Hetzel joins us to explain why the debate over the next rate move may reveal less than it seems, and what will matter when the economy stops following the Fed’s forecast.

Meanwhile, diesel at the U.S. pump has passed $5 a gallon and has outpaced crude since the crisis began. If the world’s biggest oil choke point remains this constrained, why isn’t the oil price showing more of the strain?

The market has adapted, but with fixes that were never built to last. The bill is already arriving somewhere other than the price of crude.

Matt Smith directs commodity research at Kpler, a firm that tracks the world’s oil flows tanker by tanker. He joins us to explain what that data is showing, that the oil price is not, and how much longer the calm can hold.

What does that pattern tell us about whether any deal holds?

Foreign policy analyst Lisa Daftari examines the behavioral record of a regime under pressure and why the internal conditions inside Iran may outlast whatever is agreed to from the outside.
