The Inflation Policy Cannot Fix

A supply shock raises prices and lowers output at the same time, which is the one combination interest rates cannot solve.

0:45 · 6 scenes

This lesson is part of a Stock Alerts + Tools plan.

What the lesson covers

  1. 0:00A supply shock raises prices and cuts output at once. Rates cannot fix both.
  2. 0:05Two kinds of inflation. Inflation driven by demand arrives with growth; inflation driven by supply arrives with weakness.
  3. 0:15The dilemma. Raise rates and you deepen the slowdown. Hold and inflation may become expected.
  4. 0:24Oil's reach. Oil is an input to transport, plastics, fertiliser and food. It spreads everywhere.
  5. 0:32What central banks actually watch. Whether people start expecting high inflation to continue. That is the line.
  6. 0:40Ask whether the inflation came from demand or from supply.
