We are talking abt decision makers that effectively label having a health job market as a problem. Jobs = bad Says the same clowns who printed in excess of 40% of all dollars in existence within the last few years. All that liquidity is still in their hands today, but those being punished are the poor folks who did nothing wrong.

Yes the fed has been fairly transparent that they intend to raise unemployment via higher rates in order to combat inflation. Well unemployment is still very low and inflation is still relatively high. Perhaps they will decide to do another 50bps hike instead of 25bps.

  That's just not true at all. They have correctly observed that tight labor is contributing to inflation and fighting inflation could lead to higher unemployment. That's just nature taking it's course. Unemployment is absolutely rock bottom right now and the current regime of tightening has not put a dent in it. The Fed could not possibly be getting any clearer signal that they are doing the right thing now.
