I just don't understand it. Powell supposedly wants less jobs created and more unemployment to reduce demand and tame inflation. At the same time, he is raising interest rates making it more expensive for businesses and utilities, which is forcing upward pressure on prices. Analysts are predicting a negative market in the first quarter and perhaps the 2nd quarter, followed by a pivot by the Fed and a better market during the 2nd half of 2023. But, what if it takes much longer to get inflation under control, with our economy going into a deeper recession? I don't understand it, but I am betting that the fed will pivot during the second half of 2023, as some analysts predict, and interest rates will start coming down, making bonds and preferred stocks a pretty good conservative investment latter in 2023.

Yes, zero was very good at bringing people together to form a common goal. If Yellen and Geithner were to of had a baby together, Jerome was it. Which brings us to the reality of " too big to fail" - - - - - D.C.
