a .75bps increase in the fed funds rate was a given before this number. Now a 1% increase at this months meeting has to be on the table.

This is what happens with liberal economic policies. Its devastating us all! Its raping your savings, crushing your 401k, and making everything you buy cost more. There are not many places to hide.

Honestly they need to jump to 2.5% or more immediately to actually have any effect......but we know that wont happen. Hell, I expect at least 1 Dem to publicly call for stimulus to curb inflation...AGAIN.

Chance for the chance of a 1% rate increase went from 14 to 43% chance right after the report came out

Younger people have no idea or recollection of peanut farmer running the country in to the dirt. They don't understand why Reagan is a Saint among the right.

Democrats and the MSM have been talking about backing off the rate hikes so as not to collapse the job market.

They are openly stating that dealing with the inflation for the next 2-3 years would be better than hiking the rates farther and collapsing the job market.

I'm not so sure just raising interest rates will do it. May need to deregulate all raw material suppliers to get back to booming
This is really where the attention needs to be focused. Productivity enables cheap money without inflationary consequences. This presidential administration is too inept to know what their predecessors did.

I saw some analyst predicting 13% by year end. This new bill will make it go past that by next summer. I just don't see how you can't be doom and gloom right now.

Next Fridays CPI number is going to be interesting. Many people thought CPI peaked last reading at ~9.1% but then the jobs number came in super hot which one could make the case would increase the CPI.

Inflation was expected to come in lower on this mornings CPI report due to gas prices having "dropped" since the last cpi reading. However, the actual CPI number came in higher, and much higher than expected, and the market as a whole immediately sold off ~3.25%

Thanks Biden.

Inflation is a tougher fight than most anticipated.

Only because Democrats have taken inflation's side in the fight.
