High inflation has been in the news for a long time and will continue to be. Gasoline, food, and most recently oil are just a few of the many items whose prices have been rising sharply. This is concerning any time it happens, but especially so now. That’s because the Fed has raised interest rates 11 times since March 2022 to control inflation, and the statistics prove the medicine is not working. So now what? Is the government losing control of the economy? Do we have to worry about hyperinflation? Let’s hope not, because that would mean hard times are ahead for consumers, businesses, investors, and the world.
