Instead, you should have just kept it simple. There’s a reason why I bring this up today, but first, an origin story of sorts.

It’s safe to say there’s been no lack of uncertainty over the last few months. First, we had the hope that inflation would continue trending lower, but that was quickly followed by fears that inflation would only reverse course … forcing the Federal Reserve to revert to its rate-hiking posture.
