Volatile Inflation Ahead?
This week the Fed released notes from a June 24 panel discussion featuring the Fed Vice Chair Dr Leal Brainard and her concern that we may be entering an era of more volatile inflation.
The notes reveal that at least some in the Federal Reserve leadership worry we are facing a very different kind of inflation problem. The drivers that make this inflation different were discussed in the June 12 Edition of S3T.
