Future Fed Forecast. Interest Rate, Inflation, Housing, Employment Pedictions

Inflation and Interest Rates are the two main concerns for most working class people taking money out of their pockets, taking food out of their mouths, and too often taking hope out of their lives. 

Will the Fed succeed in bring some relief? Not for quite a while. Expect interest rates to continue to rise for the rest of 2022 and into 2023. Inflation won't be whipped for a couple quarters, unless we get pushed into a deep recession. Housing prices will continue to drop and the unemployment rate slowly rise.

Be aware and prepare! Pay off those high interest rate credit cards, save up some emergency funds, and keep a few bucks on hand, there will be a sale on some quality dividend stocks.
