I suggested that due to the negative real GDP announced that they would reduce the amout they would raise the rates by from .50 to .25. The raising of rates lowers the real GDP.

This was not and is not about not raising rates. It was about how much due to the -1.4% real GDP.

odds of them not raising was very slim so i hope some of the decline already is baked in.

We're pretty much already there. Negative GDP and high inflation. The incoming even-higher increases to food and fuel are going to drive Unemployment back up. Look for the shedding of jobs really start up around July-August as those price increases really start impacting the economy.

The negative GDP number was NOT about demand. It was about supply and an incredibly strong dollar stemming from global concerns from Russia/Ukraine

There is no way we're not already in a technical recession. It's just a question of how deep it goes and how long it lasts. Will it just be q1 and a2 of this year? Will it extend to next year?

What is going to pull us out of it? I don't see anything good on the horizon

Demand is also through the roof. It's a perfect storm for massive inflation.

As I was saying…

They’ll raise .50 with near 100% certainty, and the market will probably go up on The idea the Fed is staying predictable - like it did after the March meeting. If they raise .75+ the market might swallow it too, but if they raise anything less than .50, tomorrow will be a relative blood bath IMO. Basically, I have the exact opposite opinions as you do.

Any solution to this mess has to have higher interest rates.

It is going to be painful to fix this. Here comes the pain!

I think we could technically see a recession if we go with a by-the-book definition, but at least for the vast majority of people and business, I don't believe it would be a deep recession. Supply and demand are still all out of whack. Until that imbalance shakes itself out, we really don't know. It's cliche to say, but we're in some uncharted water here. One would think demand would be grinding to a halt, but it's just kind of engaged a clutch and we're waiting to see if it will shift up or down. I don't know. The future is for sure uncertain, but I don't think it's for sure negative.
