The fed can't stop until commodities stop going up and the savings rate stops going down. Real interest rates are still less than 1%, which isn't enough to get Americans to forgo consumption in favor of savings. Look at New Zealand, which has similar problems. They've jacked rates all the way to 7.5% and are only now seeing signs of an incipient slowdown.
