Fed Under Pressure as Supply Shocks Become Permanent

Original: Opinion | Supply Shocks Are Here to Stay. Is the Fed Ready to Face That Fact?

A New York Times opinion piece argues that supply-side shocks — from trade disruptions to climate and geopolitical pressures — are now a persistent feature of the economy rather than temporary disruptions. The author questions whether the Federal Reserve's demand-focused toolkit is suited to this reality, warning that interest rate policy alone may struggle to contain inflation driven by supply constraints.

Why now: Inflation remains a top concern and readers are debating whether the Fed's policy framework can handle ongoing supply-side pressures.
