> The big picture: This points to a conundrum. The Fed is raising rates to cool inflation. But rate hikes are driving higher rents, which are fueling inflation. Why everyone and their dog says Fed is raising rates, when Fed just barely r

What if stocks will go down for the next 30 years, like it happened in Japan?

What prices went down during covid? Housing? Vehicles? Food? I recall only gas was cheaper.

75 bps hikes are not frantic. Hikes should be 300 bps to be barely enough.

I don't see any statistics that say covid has more long time side effects than covid vaccine.

Kids could have more side effects from covid vaccine than from covid itself. I am not a kid but have long term, almost a year, side effects from Pfizer vaccine.

I am very ok with housing price deflation.

And monthly rate was lower than now with 5.5% mortgage. Yes, I want it.
