https://lnkd.in/g3BqnVtR They are treating this inflation as "normal cyclical inflation", when it is anything but normal. During the Covid-19 debacle, the world economy went through a rollercoaster of changes. Those changes spanned the economic spectrum of cause and effect. The world damn near came to a screeching halt for several years. Supply chains were disrupted. People stayed home so demand decreased to dramatic lows. Thus, prices moved with the levels of supply and demand. Then as things started moving again the economies of the world started to respond to those changes. The Economy (whether global, local, or national) is not immune to Newton's Third Law of Motion: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This inflation is not "business as usual" therefore it should not be treated as such. #litrendingtopics #federalreserve #economy

"On the heels of [last] Friday’s strong jobs report, Wednesday’s consumer price index increased at a faster-than-expected pace in March. Both suggest that inflation is staying stubbornly higher, which experts say is likely keeping the Fed on the sidelines." #economy #interestrates #money #financialplanning #federalreserve https://lnkd.in/eTywiqx3

Fed sends clearest signals yet that it will soon cut interest rates Let's start Monday with some good news. The Federal Reserve Board has signalled that interest rate cuts are on the horizon, potentially bringing much-needed relief to American borrowers who have weathered high inflation since the pandemic. With improved economic data showing a downshift in consumer price pressures and a softening labor market, the Fed's readiness for a policy pivot is becoming clear. Jay Powell and other central bankers have expressed a renewed confidence in managing inflation without triggering a recession. This shift in policy is expected to begin as early as September, with traders and economists widely anticipating the first reduction. Key Points: 🔹 Better-than-expected economic data supports the Fed’s move. 🔹 Inflation has seen a rapid and significant drop. 🔹 The labour market shows signs of cooling, reducing pressure on prices. 🔹 Policymakers are focusing on balancing inflation control with job market stability. Chicago Fed president Austan Goolsbee highlighted the central bank's successful efforts to lower inflation and the importance of moving towards a more normalised interest rate posture as inflation control is achieved. In the UK, we can expect the Bank of England to follow suit, aligning with the global trend towards easing monetary policies. This potential shift marks a new era for borrowers and investors alike, creating opportunities for growth and stability. #secfinsolutions SecFin Solutions

🔍 Deep dive into the economic landscape! 🔍 Peter Morici outlines the ongoing struggle with inflation, highlighting that the Fed's current policy may not be stringent enough. As inflation soared to 8.5% in March 2022, the federal funds rate was raised to 5.3%, yet historical comparisons show that more aggressive measures might be necessary. 💹 Moreover, fiscal policies and external factors, including increased immigration and significant federal spending, add to inflationary pressures. As the debate continues, how do you see the Fed balancing inflation control with economic growth? Let's discuss! 🌐 #EconomicPolicy #FiscalPolicy #MarketWatch #InterestRateHike #BusinessGrowth https://lnkd.in/dkiiK6y8

Fed still not happy with where inflation numbers are at. However, a rate cut may still be on the table for this year as concerns grow of keeping rates too high for too long. How many rate cuts do you think there will be in the remainder of 2024? #FederalReserve #commercialrealestate #CRE #RealEstateAgent #interestrates #economy
