excellent article - the fed has one mandate now - inflate the price of crude oil, gasoline and natural gas to help accelerate the great reset - they let the greenspan put expire

Excellent as usual. If inflation exceeds the Fed rate, money is free (or borrowing produces a guaranteed real return). Massively inflationary to have a negative 7.5% real Fed rate. The stock market understands this full well, which is why it went up after the 9.1% CPI print. Also, it is absolutely scandalous that the Fed is blatantly leaking to the media what it plans to do. First 0.5%, then 0.75%, then 1%, then back to 0.75%. With the media reporting the “expected” rate changing day by day as the Fed honchos keep changing their minds. With the changes suspiciously timed to boost the stock market when it falls. Forget about the Plunge Protection Team. The Fed has single handedly arrogated to itself the power to protect the stock market at all costs, at the expense of the 99% suffering from inflation.

The Fed ignores their own "Rules of Monetary Policy" which includes an array of Fed Fund levels, most of which are sharply higher than current.

It is time for the Fed to have hard formula driven "guard rails".....the misread of "transitory" and the feet dragging should never happen again.

IF the inflation was "transitory", then any required rate rise could have been "transitory" as well. And if the inflation was not "transitory", then the immediate rate hike called for by formula would have been prompt and effective.

Money supply must also be formula driven, and only increase from a "pull" from an expanding economy.

In a system that boasts of "checks and balances", WHO CHECKS THE FED?

JPOW said the Fed rate is now at neutral. Liar, liar, pants on fire! The stock market knows he is lying for their benefit and it bounds up. With inflation at 9.1% and the Fed rate at 2.25%, it’s so far below neutral it is in a figurative hell.
