A hefty dose of short term inflation that does not raise by much inflation expectations is perhaps what the Fed is praying for. Home prices dropped 8% from the top in nominal terms. In real terms, with 4% inflation, they are down 12%. Another year of this, and we will be down to 15% or so nominal, 25% or so real. That's what everybody says is close to the worse case, so we could be done in a year or less.
