I think the situation is difficult to control. FED is caught between a rock and a hard place.
Raising rates could initiate a rock slide for banks . Not raising rates will make voters angry with persistent inflation.
My guess is FED raises rates by 2 steps of 25 basis points during 2023. And print money for the 3+ Trillion budget deficit.
No wonder Gold is outperforming. That gold canary is saying things look dicey.
