This week the Fed is due to announce the next Federal Funds or Federal Prime Rate increase. It has been previously mentioned that every 6 weeks the fed plans to increase the rate by .50%. This time, before the meeting began, it was hinted that we would see an increase of .75%. This in itself has shot the stock market, the cryptocurrency market, and interest rates into a tailspin for the worse.
Additionally, last week it was announced that inflation has hit a 40 year high. The current inflation numbers haven’t been seen since 1981.
