Analyst Warns Inflation Like Disease That Will Worsen Without Aggressive Treatment

at 0:21 · Attributed speaker claim

Unfortunately, inflation is like a disease. If you don't kill it, it'll just stick around and linger and it'll get worse and worse and worse.

He claims the Fed estimates neutral at 3% when it's actually around 4.5%, causing them to consistently overestimate unemployment and underestimate inflation and growth.
