Conceding that inflation is painful, President Joe Biden says his $1.85 trillion Build Back Better program, which is being held up in the Senate, and the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, which he plans to sign on Monday, will help ease price pressures.

As a result, the “output gap”—the difference between the U.S. economy’s potential and actual gross domestic product—has closed in short order.

This is forcing small businesses to boost compensation to the highest level since 1984.</p>\n<p>Brigden reckons that the U.S. central bank will view a 3.8% jobless rate as full employment, even though that’s above the 3.5% trough reached in February 2020, before Covid hit. That level might not be far off, given the indicators. The bad news, he adds, is that the current supereasy financial conditions are “utterly inappropriate,” given surging inflation and a strong labor market. </p>\n<p>The Fed is only about to start reducing its $120 billion in monthly securities purchases by just $15 billion a month; at that rate, it will add over $400 billion to its $8.5 trillion balance sheet, which has more than doubled since February 2020, before the pandemic. And the central bank’s federal-funds rate target remains at a rock-bottom 0% to 0.25%.</p>\n<p>So far, Brigden notes, financial conditions have tightened mainly at the short end of the Treasury market, where the two-year note’s yield has tripled since early August, to 0.52%, while the five-year yield in the “belly” of the curve has jumped to 1.23% from 0.65%, anticipating Fed rate hikes starting in mid-2022. But other measures, notably longer-term Treasury yields, credit spreads, and equity prices, remain supereasy.</p>\n<p>Containing surging inflation requires tighter financial conditions, Brigden concludes.
