Unfortunately, I think the next head of the fed is going to be appointed specifically to reduce interest rates, so we’re probably just going to go back to the 0-rate trough.
- pjc50 8mo agoQuite likely. This will be great for growth. .. and terrible for inflation, but that can be blamed on other people.
- NoGravitas 8mo agoYes, it will, as always, be blamed on wages, even when wage growth is slower than inflation.
- disgruntledphd2 8mo agoI don't see how this can happen, tbh. Like, the chair is just one vote, and the regional Feds have almost a majority. Presumably, whoever gets the job will say they'll reduce interest rates, but I don't see how they can actually accomplish this without getting the rest of the Fed on board.
