I wonder if that means current inflation rates are probably COVID-inflated and will drop precipitously?
in which case maybe the Fed shouldn't raise rates as aggressively?
Or maybe there's not enough to really infer anything from this?
- pishpash 4y agoWhat aggressive? They should at least get back to neutral, and they're not even there yet.
- hpagey 4y agocame to say exactly this. We are not even at neutral yet.
- jmt_ 4y agoNot until we have returned to early 2019 levels of inflation should the Feds ease their funds rate increase plans in my opinion. Why lengthen this process if we don't have to?
