Historically, when the Fed has cut into inflation above 3%, one of two outcomes tends to follow:
A brief reprieve, followed by a larger inflation wave (see: 1970s).
A crisis born from cheap money rather than expensive money (see: housing in the 2000s).
We are heading into another round of cuts with:
• A still-bloated balance sheet
• A new digital plumbing that auto-funds the Treasury
• Hard-asset markets flashing warning lights
Paul Tudor Jones summed it up in one dry quip: interest expense is now one of Washington’s largest bills; commodities are “ridiculously under-owned”; and “all roads lead to inflation.”
The Fed’s flip from QT to easing doesn’t end this inflation episode. It likely begins its next season.

Long have we dwelt on the corrupting influence of funny money on capital asset prices and on the economy. Everything gets distorted, perverse…and false. We get high prices. We get low prices. What we don’t get are honest prices.
Yesterday, we looked at the ‘small time crooks’ — ripping off the public for a million or two.
Today, we move to the big fry.
You’ll recall that the money in question was never earned by anyone. No one has a genuine claim to it. And what kind of apple falls from this funny money tree? Just what you’d expect…a funny one…with the worms already in it.
