Episode notes

The Federal Reserve recently announced that they will be doing more quantitative tightening, more quantitative tightening in 2022. This means taper off their asset purchases and raise interest rates. My question to you is, can the Federal Reserve take these actions without crashing the markets? It's what I talked about in the deflationary spiral. You're going to start to see us sell off inequities. The US dollar will get stronger or it will get along the way. Other currencies will start to fail like what's happening in Turkey today as this explodes around the world. And the Federal have to come in with far more easing because if they don't, they have to nationalize banks.

Jeff Booth and Clay Finck chat about inflation and deflation, why inflation isn’t necessarily good for a healthy and thriving economy, and more. Jeff is the author of The Price of Tomorrow: Why Deflation is Key to an Abundant Future.
