Central banks hesitant to change inflation target despite low consumer prices.
Central banks like the US Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan, and ECB are hesitant to change their 2% inflation target, even though inflation has been consistently below that level. The Fed and ECB are reviewing their policies but are unlikely to shift from the 2% target. Some suggest adopting a range around 2% for more flexibility. Discussions are ongoing about other monetary options beyond just targeting prices.
