Another Fed meeting and another disappointment for someone. We look at the CPI numbers and then the Fed decision to pause on rate hikes and it make me scratch my head in confusion. They say they are worried about inflation, and maybe raising rates 1-2 more times this year, yet inflation is dropping quickly, the economy seems to be fine and interest rates are higher than they have been in 20 years.

Are we living in the twilight zone, Alice and Wonderland, or fantasy land. it's not entirely clear, but one thing is clear... The Fed is determined to squash inflation no matter what.

If they keep on this path, it leads to deflation, which is another boogieman they are afraid of. We will see which monster under the bed they are afraid of most. Both are bad choices, but they cannot sit this one out.

I'm still sticking to my claim that we could hit 0% inflation by year end. We are halfway through the year and accelerating towards that number. I might hit the target earlier than expected.

Join us this week for another exciting episode about what the end of world looks like. Don't hate us for being optimists 🙂
