Again, maybe this is more than a knee-jerk application of the concept of core inflation to unusual circumstances; maybe there's an argument saying that current monetary policy should react to the state of the rental market a year ago. But what is it? 11/ — PolitiTweet.org

But that isn't a reason for tight monetary policy! If new-tenant rents are leveling off, which seems to be happening, this says that conventional measures of core inflation are about the past, not a good indicator of whether the economy is overheated now. 10/ — PolitiTweet.org

Now, it's certainly possible that the Fed hasn't yet tightened enough. That's a quantitative question, and hard to answer in this strange new economic environment. But the hardliner arguments I'm hearing seem to rest on dubious logic 12/ — PolitiTweet.org
