The Federal Reserve may be cutting rates. But, according to Chris Casey, founder & managing director of WindRock Wealth Management, the most dangerous inflation hasn’t even started yet.
In this conversation with Wealthion’s Maggie Lake, Casey explains why the Fed is far more limited than most investors realize, why markets are already looking past rate cuts, and why the next inflation wave won’t come from supply shocks or tariffs, but from the Fed’s inevitable response to an unsustainable debt load. “When you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail,” Casey warns. With trillions in deficits and a fiscal system under strain, he argues that money printing becomes the default option — that’s when the real inflation risk emerges.
