Yes, pumping a trillion dollars into the private sector via interest rates (govt is a net payer of them), should definitely slow down inflation. Nothing like pumping $1T into the economy to slow it down. The loan trend should be downwards then, yes, even slightly so if hiking rates effected loans negatively. That is the Taylor Rule thesis correct?

Let's see how 1 year of rate hikes worked on our loan applications: https://ibb.co/64Srz64

https://twitter.com/patrick_saner/status/1628690771141328897?s=20

Rate hikes increase inflation, (esp w/ a high ratio of debt/gdp, interest rates are expansionary), put more money directly in the hands of loan writers. Who increase their income, just like a bond investor might invest in bonds, by writing more loans.

This is old-school economics, and it's just plain wrong, along with a whole other bunch of theories from the 90's. Economics' isn't a science, and even if it was, this wouldn't pass any litmus test.

attofreak t1_jacjngq wrote

The Feds just as easily might do away with it too. If holding the interest rates at even 5% does enough damage to bring inflation down over the next 2 years, they will consider it a "success". And the moment they even decrease rates once by 25 bps, markets will lose their minds and rally to new highs. We are entering a new era now, where "Japanification" of American and in turn global economics is underway - hopefully, a very slow process unfolding over several decades before we sell next few generations for our immediate needs. The classic debt cycles will be abused worse than rule 34 hentais about Sammy the assistant.

Easiest short of all time then. FOMO crowd is left poor, and bears are the new gurus of Wall Street.

I'm convinced most people are incapable of comprehending nuanced language. Here's what he said regarding 75bps rate hikes in March 22:

"A 75 basis point increase is not something that the committee is actively considering."

And here's what he said about raising the target inflation rate:

"We're not considering that. We're not going to consider that. Under any circumstances. We're going to keep our inflation target at 2%. We're going to use our tools to get inflation back to 2%."

So, you see how the first statement wasn't a dismissal of 75bps rate hikes? But rather a statement about what's been presently considered? There's a lot less nuance in the second statement.

Russia can’t even handle our second-line weapons being given in relatively small numbers to a country a quarter of its size.

Poland could apparently solo Russia no prob, based on what we’ve seen in this conflict.

China has an even worse position, since any war with them would involve them needing to make a landing on a hostile country that has shitloads of missiles and the support of the largest navy in the world by 10x.

Lists of equipment losses and casualties supported by photos for every one are hard to describe as propaganda. Russia’s running up almost 2000 tanks lost- at least half their serviceable fleet if not more. Comparable losses in other equipment, usually a third of it was captured by Ukraine. That’s not what a competent power looks like, and no, they’re definitely not gonna win, unless maybe taking just the Donbas at the cost of 200-300 thousand people is a victory

SufficientTowers t1_jaee7a4 wrote

That's a data point in isolation. You haven't heard the alternate explanation for those things so it's natural that you would see those as justifying your worldview - that is exactly how good propaganda works.

Look up Russian military tactics, going back 80 years. They use the attrition model of combat. They send overwhelming numbers (using their most expendable soldiers and equipment) knowing that statistically an opponent of even half the population cannot win against those tactics (this is well established military doctrine in the US as well, btw). In the West we don't consider such tactics ethical but they do in Russia.

If you don't believe me go look up Russian losses in WW2, Afghanistan, Syria, etc. They all used the same tactics.

I want you to keep this conversation in the back of your mind for a few months from now. You will be confused how Ukraine "suddenly" lost. The MSM will have an explanation for it that you will likely buy into. Think about how I know all this before it's happened.

Not just ftx, the market in general seems to have a lot of fraud and as of now it seems like it's too easy to magically make money appear(hyperbole).there's also that most stable coins that I know of are backed based on usd or some other currency, which is a problem when talking about cryptocurrency becoming the new global currency.

I also personally dislike the technology and the people leading the charge, I don't think privatized currency would be a good thing for most people, so in my view a govvy run cryptocurrency just seems like worse money.

attofreak t1_jad01to wrote

The Central Banks basically inflating the economy with NIRP and mindless QE + loan programs, year after year, decade after decade, while we live in a low growth/low inflation environment. There were fears that would be our fate for a while now, and then suddenly this supply side constraints and sudden increase in demand shook things up. Newer generations are not only holding off on having kids, bringing down birth rate, they are also delaying participating in the conventional credit cycles, choosing a less productive lifestyle in non-STEM, non-business careers (trade schools etc), which is creating a talent gap (for now, USA can still fill it with immigration, and then the right-wing nuts lose their minds without seeing the bigger picture).

Everything is running on debt more than actual growth: the markets react positively to bad news because it means debt will be cheaper when Feds relent and decrease rates eventually. Corporations are spending money on share buybacks and monopolies pretty much hold the economy hostage. Tech used to lead the pack in growth because there was so much to reap from just Moore's Law scaling. Now we are at the end stage of that, plus a saturation of mobile computing and cloud computing. What we are left with are dubious future tech and protocols, which are desperately creating problems to solve than the other way.

Feds are way more powerful than BOJ, so they can still get away with most of it. And USA got their buddies in EU and western world to ensure it maintains dominance over rest of the world, while "outsourcing" its misery to the poorer countries in due time. But with rise of China, Asian and African countries finally have an alternative to the oppressive/meddling shenanigans of west. An open challenger stands in the way and the curmudgeons in American politics barely know how to respond besides the sanctions and bullying tactics - which China is using to its advantage to corner its part of the world.

Shoddy or delayed construction, plumbing, or electricity is a massive drain on the economy of a country. If there is a massive shortage of workers willing to even do the work and a lack of people with a couple brain cells to rub together entering the field due to your ridiculous mindset, the innovation and everything you rely on is not possible. Also, the trades wouldn't be paying such outsized wages if there wasn't such a need for them. Your argument makes the assumption you can remove the middle levels of the scaffolding and add to the top to help a country move forward.

There's a touch of irony here. There's an even bigger picture you're not considering here that the "right wing nuts" are in the right about; longer term downward pressures on wages due to infinite labor supply, elimination of whole sectors of industry, as well as strain placed on social systems by importing net unproductive people. The immigration system in the US does not select for the best and brightest globally, unlike immigration systems in most other countries.

Comparative advantage needs to be held up against localized losses. It doesn't matter to the unemployed that everything is 10% cheaper when their jobs are eliminated and there's no path to retraining.
