Yes, I'm almost sure CEOs were forced to raise prices and cause the inflation we see every year. They only need an excuse or someone to blame. The Fed is easy...maybe they can blame them more often.

Almost every country right now has inflation, many of them worse than in the US. IMHO, the multiple causes of this inflation are the war in Ukraine raising energy, transportation and food prices, the lockdown in China disrupting many supply chains, a lot of pent up demand as well as greater than usual savings from not buying as much as usual during the pandemic and companies raising prices because they have cover to do so and people having those extra savings.
