The Fed's Impossible Position: War Inflation vs. Rate Cuts
About this episode
With oil prices spiking and gas crossing $4 again due to Middle East conflict, the Federal Reserve faces a nightmare scenario where energy-driven inflation could force rate hikes even as the economy shows signs of slowing. This tension between fighting war inflation and supporting growth is the single biggest macro question for investors right now.
