If The Fed Was Serious About Inflation

They would reign in the money supply by paying the banks more interest on excess reserves thereby slowing down their lending.
I’m about sick and tired of all the endless excuses by financial media on what ignited the inflation bomb. When trillions in PPP bank loans as well as trillions in stimulus check helicopter drops are deployed, what did they THINK would happen?
These people are not only incompetent but are flat out liars.

They want socialism and reliance on government to gain more and more power. Certain people are wanting this.

They’ve raised it 300 bps YTD albeit they should have started last year instead of this year. Probably going up another 100-150 before Dec 31. Lending is only half the problem with people using credit cards and HELOCs to maintain their standard of living. Deposits accumulated during the pandemic are being spent down rapidly due to inflation driving higher every day spending at the grocery store and gas pump. Also, the Fed doesn’t give a shite. If they were serious about helping the consumer they should have raised 200 in January and said “We’ve done our part. The rest is up to Congress and the White House to figure out.”

Wages and and Rents are brutal. Sticky.
Only way the Fed is going to get these down is to hard land.
Wage price spiral is in full effect.

shite will really hit the fan when this finally gets to a breaking point.
IMO, this is the only reason things haven't imploded yet. Once the last bit of that cash runs out, things will get nuts quickly.

If they were serious they would lower rates which would bring down the cost of capital for the industries under cost pressures. Then Congress/EPA would deregulate and subsidize O&G production and transportation.
Instead we have a chest beating contest between FOMC and a twitter mob of fools who think they are "printing money." Retardation will ensue and yeah some of us will lose our jobs

Regarding the great money print w/ 2° USD devaluation driving inflation, it will happen. That shoe has yet to drop though.
The F4d's tools here are very limited.

They wish they could print money that makes the debt situation easy
Cosplaying WWZ combined with extremely low IQ climate policy and this is what you get.

That's not the Fed.

Disagree. The over-liquidity of the market (thanks, stimmy checks and PPP finally tipping over what's been brewing with 14 years of QE) is why we're in this hole in the first place. Digging it deeper is the last thing we need to do.
Businesses are going to have to learn how to live without cheap, easy money once again.

Today is another swb day in the market
For those of you that aren’t financially literate, “swb” stands for “shower with Brandon”
If you lose money and can’t pay your tribute to Brandon you’re forced to shower with him

Those measures have been meaningless for decades. If that was "money" velocity would have skyrocketed. It's not. It's bank reserves that never leave the Fed's balance sheet. Some of it is unrealized credit hitting money market accounts for large corporations.
Just as a check - If "the money suppply" increased 3.5x higher since 2019, why are we only getting 8% CPI reads? Why didn't GDP expand in a linear fashion with that growth?
Why is there a global dollar shortage if the money supply was debased to that degree? Why aren't treasury bonds yielding 30-40%? Lots of market prices that should disprove that theory.

It must give ppl solace to think the ppl in charge are incompetent, rather than nefarious and corrupt.

I thought I saw someone say on here those charts were misleading because there was a definition change of what accounts were included.
So a big part of that jump was money already out there, not new money or whatever.

They have Fed Chairs on record saying they have no clue how to calculate the money supply and all the rehypothecation of Treasuries.

The current level of inflation is embedded in the cost of products, ....because it’s a supply side issue, .... period, full stop.
The so-called Financial “experts” from Wall Street that are being trotted out by the mainstream media are blowing hot air. They claim that it is solely a Spending (fiscal policies) that are causing the inflation (ie. demand side).
I heard this just last week with regard to the COL increase on Social Security ..... that it was going to cause another "jump in Inflation."
As we learned in basic Econ, they’re wrong.
Our current inflation cycle, most notably evident within massive increases in food prices, is a supply side issue created by the increased energy costs.
You don't even need to research it further because you see it everyday in your own household budget .... this is the root cause of the widespread inflation increases. This is an administration policy outcome ... it is a feature of this administration's policies, ... not a flaw.
Don't be fooled .....

If there is any money velocity, inflation will be a raging forest fire.
