M1 continues to grow because the "k" factor! Fed has to develop and implement already a good plan to drain excess liquidity. To combat stagflation it is needed a fine tunning of the monetary aggregates pari passu with investments, inventories, savings, credit and consume with more art and experience than complicated algorithms.

"The silver lining? Inflation will help the housing market solidify its bottom and start rising, even though interest rates will be higher."

Mr. Hutchinson's logic may be flawed here. If people cannot afford the payments whether due to lower incomes or higher interest rates, simple supply and demand dictates that inflation is not directly related to forming support in the housing market. This market may continue to fall as fewer and fewer people can qualify for loans much less afford the higher payment instigated by higher interest rates.

Your article describes what happens when you interfere in a natural course of events, that brought us to this place. Excellent analysis, so now the slippery slope has already been carved by the financial institutions.
We bailed out the fat cats, they retained the money, never pushed it out to small businesses, middle income and low income earners.

Irrational bankers and financial folks, that keep getting the fat bonuses on the average workers throughout the globe. Almost makes you understand the revolutions and uprisings that take place. Tax these jerks at 50% and tax them on global incopme, get all the nations approve it, shut the valve on overseass banks and offshore tax heavens.
