2025 Review: Overview 2025 Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy StrategyFed Listens 2025System Analytical WorkQ&AsRelated SpeechesHistorical Statements on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy [H3] 2025 Review: Overview [H5] Related Information Fed Listens: Perspectives from the Public 2025 (PDF) Second Thomas Laubach Research Conference View Past Reviews In 2025, the Federal Reserve undertook its second periodic review of its monetary policy strategy, tools, and communications—the framework it uses to pursue its congressionally assigned goals of maximum employment and price stability. The review was focused on two specific areas: the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy (PDF), which articulates the Committee's approach to monetary policy, and the Committee's policy communications tools. The Committee's 2 percent longer-run inflation goal was not a focus of the review. The review process featured three key components: The Fed Listens initiative provided an opportunity for policymakers to consult with a broad range of people and groups across the country. At 10 events in 2025, policymakers engaged with a wide range of organizations— workforce development organizations and community colleges, retirees, union members, small business owners, residents of low- and moderate-income communities, and others—to hear about how monetary policy affects people’s daily lives and livelihoods. These events provided valuable feedback on monetary policy. The Second Thomas Laubach Research Conference, hosted by the Federal Reserve Board, brought policymakers together with world-class academics and researchers to hear about research central to the framework review. The FOMC discussed topics associated with the review at five consecutive meetings beginning in January 2025. This discussion was informed by analytical work by research staff across the Federal Reserve System and was reported in the minutes of those five meetings. On August 22, 2025, the FOMC released a revised Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy. This document lays out the goals for monetary policy, articulates the policy framework, and serves as the foundation for the Committee's policy actions. The revised statement indicates that the FOMC intends to conduct a regular review of its monetary policy strategy, tools, and communication practices roughly every five years.

Your Diagnosis
Before revealing the machine’s verdict, predict the BS score for each signal. Higher = more BS (more fluff, less verifiable substance). Drag each slider, then submit to compare your judgment against the engine.
Stuck? Reveal the heuristic lens — how the deterministic page-auditor reads each signal (no AI, pure pattern rules)
These are the structural rules a local, deterministic auditor applies — the same lens you can use to judge each signal. They describe what to look for, not this company’s result.
Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.
Pull the main entities out of the H1, then check whether they actually recur through the body. A page that announces one thing and then talks about another drifts. Headings with no real sentences underneath read as pseudo-substance.
Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.
Look at how much sentence length varies. Natural writing varies its rhythm; templated or mass-produced copy is statistically uniform. Very low variation reads as commodity content — unless unique named entities break the pattern.
Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.
Want to apply this lens yourself? The free BS Indicator Chrome extension runs these heuristic checks live on any page. Bear in mind it is a single-page, deterministic tool — it relies only on pattern rules for the page in front of it and does not perform the cross-page semantic correlation this audit uses, so its readout is a starting lens, not the full verdict.

Government, Municipal & Public Sector BS: Federal Reserve Board (federalreserve.gov)
This is a benchmark for zero-BS government communication. It is a strictly functional data utility that replaces persuasion with documentation and marketing with reporting.
Implement comprehensive JSON-LD Organization and Person schema to technically link the Board of Governors to their public profiles and official records. Clarify the review_count metric to distinguish between public comments and user ratings to avoid confusion with commercial trust theatre. Replace the generic Stay Connected and Tools and Information H6 template headings with more descriptive, entity-specific labels. Ensure the Micro Data Reference Manual and other technical PDFs are consistently updated to match the May 2026 temporal anchor.
The site is an exact match for the Government and Public Sector category, specifically focusing on central banking and monetary authority. The content is characterized by high-density regulatory data, legislative mandates, and public accountability records rather than commercial service offerings.
“The low BS score is driven by superior information density and zero semantic drift across sub-pages. The minor point penalties are purely technical, resulting from a lack of structured schema and the presence of minor industry clichés like 'transparency' jargon.”
This training module utilizes a snapshot of public data from Federal Reserve Board, captured on May 30, 2026, to demonstrate how machine logic evaluates different types of business narratives.
Purpose: This data is presented under “Fair Use” / “Educational Exception” for the purpose of forensic semantic analysis, allowing users to compare human intuition against machine-generated evaluations.
