This is the reason why inflation isn’t going away. Preston Pysh explains it well. The Treasury and Fed are giving mixed signals. They are raising rates (hitting the brakes) and yet still expanding the money supply (hitting the gas).
They are stepping on the gas and hitting the break simultaneously. The gas is the TGA and Repo, while the break is QT from the FED. It’s all narrative control and the manipulation of liquidity into the hands of the chosen ones.
This is a reverse repo.
“The party executing the reverse repo sells assets to the other party while agreeing to buy them back later at a slightly higher price.”
Marty Bent has an excellent post on how visible this is in the grocery store through something called shrinkflation. Basically, everything is getting smaller as a way of hiding that the dollar is losing value rapidly.
More and more people are beginning to point out the shrinkflation they are encountering throughout the economy.
Dish soap.
Gorilla glue.
Kahlua.
Toothpaste.
Crackers.
Gatorade.
Bacon.
Eggs.
Chewing gum.
Everything is getting smaller while prices remain the same or increase.
