Rate hikes may deepen K-shaped US economy, strategist warns
Original: Raising interest rates may not slow down the U.S. economy but make it even more K-shaped: Strategist
A market strategist argues that Federal Reserve interest rate increases may not cool the U.S. economy as intended, but instead worsen its K-shaped divide, where stronger households and businesses keep spending while weaker ones fall further behind. The comments add to debate over whether tight monetary policy is slowing growth evenly or entrenching inequality across the economy.
Why now: Markets are weighing whether Fed rate hikes are working or simply widening economic divides.
