Morgan Stanley CEO: The Fed is expected to raise interest rates 4 times in 2022, each time by 25 basis points: According to news on March 8, Morgan Stanley CEO believes that "the Fed must raise interest rates, and the Fed does not want the economy to fall into a crisis." Recession. If it puts the economy in recession, it's going to stagflation, which is really bad. The Fed was absolutely planning to raise rates by 50 points, but it's not going to. I'd be shocked if they raised rates by 50 points because The Fed cannot invest courage in an environment of uncertainty. I think the Fed will raise rates very methodically.

Institutional analysis: The September non-agricultural employment report will determine the Fed's reduction arrangements: The FOMC meeting in September hinted that the Fed will almost certainly announce a reduction plan in November. One underweight condition that has not yet been met is "substantial progress" in improving the job market. Next week's non-farm payrolls report will be the decisive data point. Economic Research expects next week's report to show nonfarm payrolls rising by more than 750,000. With job openings topping 10 million, even a fraction of those receiving unemployment insurance rejoining the labor force could provide a significant boost to employment numbers for September and the months ahead. Unless next week's non-farm payrolls report disappoints, showing an increase of less than 240,000, the improvement in the labor market before November will not meet the criteria of "substantial progress", according to calculations.

Instead, Keiser proposes another way out — stop funding the Fed, buy Bitcoin, and get rid of the “violently backed” dollar. Keiser also said that bitcoin is already a "harder" currency than gold, given the time it takes for the bitcoin network to generate a new block. (U.Today)[2020/6/8]
