This is fun: The majority of people think that higher interest rates lead to higher inflation, not lower. Got to raise rates to keep those inflation expectations anchored, yup yup. restud.com/wp-content/upl…

Basically the bad scenario now is 3C and the good scenario is 2C.
This interactive chart is good for envisioning the difference between those two. It's a pretty big difference.

I don’t think it was obvious to most people … if it was obvious to most people then why didn’t that obviousness show up in the financial markets?
I know the TIPS spread is not highly predictive, but if you have a way to consistently outforecast it there’s money on the table.

Is this forecast correct currently?
My confidence in it is low — I would not be that surprised if actual inflation was way higher than this or if we got a recession and undershoot — but I’m pretty reluctant to claim that I can do better.

If you consider that Canada has oceans on both its east and west coasts, perhaps all of this is governed by maritime law.

Hard to believe that no one at Zillow was familiar with the concept of adverse selection before betting about a billion dollars on it not existing.
