US Inflation and Interest Rates
I think the FED will increase the Funds Rate by 50 bps tomorrow to 4.25 - 4.50%.
Inflation is slowing (but still much too high at 7.1% and 6.0% core) so I suspect future rate increases after tomorrow's will be 25 bps jumps until the FED reaches a terminal rate it thinks will do the trick in bring inflation down to its target of 2-3% given the lag between when interest rate hikes are announced and when their full impact is felt throughout the economy.

The rate of inflation is a balancing act between maximum employment and price stability. Over time central banks have determined that 2% is about the right level for a healthy economy that works for the the maximum number of people. We are not there yet.
