With inflation at a three-year peak and stubborn prices across goods, new Chair Kevin Warsh is pushing hard to bring inflation back to 2%, signaling a tougher stance. Markets reacted sharply: stocks fell, bonds rallied. Warsh is also launching task forces to improve Fed transparency and build consensus, while a surprisingly strong job market removes one key reason for easing. Rate hike fears are now firmly in the driver’s seat. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
