I also remember earning 14.3% on my money market mutual fund back in 1981. Ah, the good old days when I didn’t have money saved yet......

Bring rates up to historic levels. Keeping rates ridiculously low is creating a monstrous over-valuation of stocks and real-estate. In other words FED has created the biggest bubble in 1000 years. The inevitable crash will also be historic.

He was speaking at a required Congressional hearing. He didn't say things weren't fine. Just the opposite in fact. Rates have been held artificially low for a long time. They need to be raised. They should have been years ago.

Yep, and the Swamp may already have plans to cause a recession just as Trump is running for reelection.

They want to arrest the development of inflation, but this is overkill.
