How about I lay it out for you in simple layman’s terms: EVERYONE is turning on the Fed. Even Steve LIESman on CNBC.
As well they should be. Are you praising the fed?
You did not even mention unemployment and wage growth, which is a huge component of what the fed cares about and they are losing that battle, too.
The markets want to go higher and everyone is up 25-40% right now, so I am fine with tbe market moves. The economy is what is concerning, though. Six months from now we are going to be worse off than we are today. If Powell (and admittedly the government with out o control spending) had been doing his job effectively that would not be the case.

I’ve been saying since 2018 that the Fed will lose control and the confidence in central bank put(s) would vanish into the collapse.
This will be the bursting of the “faith in the Fed” bubble.
It’s taking much longer to play out than I originally thought but Covid was their spark to finish their business of a true global transformation.

I've said this in other threads, but I think it bears repeating in response to this.
JP & Co were fricking laaaaaaaate to the game on Inflation (*laughs transitorally*) but since they've shown up they've stuck to their gameplan. Whether their gameplan of "OHMYGODPLEASELETUSHAVEASOFTLANDING!!1" is going to work is another topic (hint: it won't, but at least they're looking in the right direction).
While this is going on, the administration and Congress have been keeping Inflation sticky by continuing with irresponsible levels of spending as well as fricking over our primary energy sector (O&G). Expensive energy does not magically equate to cheaper products.
The Fed is addressing the currency devaluation in the wake of PPP and stimmy checks, but they can do only so much when the actions of the administration and Congress are working against them.
