I am constantly amazed at the Federal Reserve's ineptitude they still see an inflationary threat a simple study of the last several recessions will show a blip in inflation for the last few months before a true serious slowdown occurs the real big mistake is to react to such minor inflationary blips by raising rates again we have yet to feel the effects of rate hikes from March-April-May, a full 100 basispts analysts are already talking about perhaps a rate decrease later this year how about a revolutionary concept: let the credit market dictate rates??? that would eliminate much of the extreme cyclical nature that has resulted from human controlled monetary policy making committee controlled economies are part & parcel of communist nations Federal Reserve policy actions are totally inconsistent with capitalism principles dont fight the Fed / Jim
