A federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration's effort to transfer the supercomputing center operated by the University Consortium for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) in Wyoming. The administration announced in December plans to shut down the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), a Boulder, Colorado-based facility funded by the National Science Foundation and managed by UCAR since the early 1960s, which supports academic researchers with large-scale atmospheric, weather, and climate studies. UCAR sued under the Administrative Procedures Act after being directed to facilitate transfer of the Wyoming supercomputing center to a different operator. Judge Brooke Jackson found that UCAR was likely to prevail and would face irreparable harm without intervention, rejecting the government's argument that no formal decision had been made. The judge pointed to communications from as early as February—before the public comment period had closed—in which National Science Foundation officials told UCAR that a transfer decision had already been reached.

The article announces that slides and videos from the Hoover Monetary Policy Conference, held on May 8, 2026, are now available on both the author's site and the Hoover Institution website. The author notes that he, along with Valerie Ramey, Michael Bordo, and Tom Church, co-wrote an overview essay for the conference. The post lists the conference sessions and participants: 'Independence and Governance,' featuring Edward Nelson, Gary Richardson, and David Wilcox; 'Fiscal and Monetary Policy Interactions,' with Michael Bordo, Barry Eichengreen, and Hanno Lustig; 'International Issues,' with Arvind Krishnamurthy, Stephen Redding, and Kenneth Rogoff; 'Mandate, Tools, and Regulation,' with Thomas Drechsel, Luis Garicano, and Carolyn Wilkins; 'Risks, Challenges, and Opportunities,' with Marvin Barth, Darrell Duffie, and Christina Skinner; and a 'Policy Panel' featuring Federal Reserve officials Michelle Bowman, Mary Daly, Austan Goolsbee, and Christopher Waller. The conference also included director remarks from Hoover Institution Director Condoleezza Rice and a dinner address by Tyler Goodspeed of ExxonMobil titled 'Firefighters and Arsonists: Monetary Policy and the History of Recession.'
Keywords: monetary policy, Federal Reserve, Hoover Institution, central bank policy, conference
This overview essay, co-authored by John Cochrane, Valerie Ramey, Michael Bordo, and Tom Church, summarizes the proceedings of the Hoover Institution's annual Monetary Policy Conference held May 7–8, 2026. The conference examined central bank independence, fiscal-monetary interactions, international monetary issues, and the economic implications of artificial intelligence. On independence and governance, Edward Nelson argued that true loss of Fed independence is historically rare, with the 1951 Treasury Accord period as the clearest case, and cast doubt on the Nixon-Burns pressure narrative. Gary Richardson traced the constitutional history of central banking, concluding the current system is functioning as designed under recent political pressure. David Wilcox identified a specific vulnerability: provisions allowing removal of Reserve Bank presidents under weaker legal protections than board governors, which a determined president could potentially exploit. On fiscal pressures, Michael Bordo reviewed two centuries of British fiscal history and the Treasury view of debt discipline. Barry Eichengreen documented the dollar's declining share of global reserves, from 72% in 2001 to 56% in 2025, and falling foreign holdings of Treasury debt. Hanno Lustig argued that Treasuries' historic convenience yield has eroded, with investors now pricing them as risky rather than money-like assets. On operational structure, Christopher Waller proposed centralizing back-office Fed functions while preserving regional independence. On AI and interest rates, Austan Goolsbee presented modeling showing that an expected AI productivity boom could raise the natural interest rate as forward-looking households increase consumption ahead of capacity expansion. In the dinner address, Tyler Goodspeed argued, drawing on a recession chronology spanning 1700 to the present, that expansions contain no predictive information about subsequent recessions, that recessions do not cleanse economies, and that policy responses to unforeseeable shocks can significantly worsen outcomes, citing the handling of Lehman Brothers in 2008.
