Well, you can say goodbye to the nauseating term “transitory.”
Federal Reserve Jerome Powell ostensibly retired the word when discussing skyrocketing inflation.
Powell told Congress during his testimony that it’s “probably a good time to retire that word.”
“The word ‘transitory’ has different meanings to different people,” he said. “We tend to use it to mean that it won’t leave a permanent mark in the form of higher inflation.”
This is hilarious.
Unless you are seeped in Keynesian nonsense, you never would have thought inflation would be “transitory.”
