What was said

"That model, if you look at it from their own website, this is not my chart, this is their chart, has broken for 15, 16 years at this point. You know, it broke in 2010."

Danny Dee argues the Federal Reserve's primary neutral rate model has been disconnected from economic reality since 2010, leading to systematic policy mistakes. He claims the Fed estimates neutral at 3% when it's actually around 4.5%, causing them to consistently overestimate unemployment and underestimate inflation and growth.
