Inflation, Recession, Or Soft Landing-Which?
Early today, before the FOMC meeting, I went on Forex Analytix, better known as F.A.C.E, for a pre-market interview.
I discussed gold, silver, dollar, oil, bonds the Economic Modern Family and what I see as future trends for investing.
Later, the Fed announced they would keep rates the same.
But they also hinted there might be a cut in September.
Traditionally, the Fed always gives us forward guidance or relays when they are going to change monetary policy.
Except, of course, if there is a crisis impending, which is an example of chaos theory.
The bottom line is the original statement in the interview is the title of this Daily.
Are we headed for a new round of inflation, recession or a soft landing?
The market will tell us and until then it really is anybody’s guess.
