    Interest rates go up, home price increases slow, maybe even come down. Rates go back down house prices go up at a faster rate. These rate hikes can’t accomplish anything except increase the unemployment rate. That’s what’s bad about the manufactured recession that has already started. The reasons are different, but like the inflation of the 70’s, rates are being increased, while the economy is already weak. The only thing they can do is shrink the economy to match the available work force. It’s a unique situation. No easy way out. Eventually when the supply chain is back on track, we may see a boom. Till then the Feds setting themselves up with higher rates, so they’ll have some room to drop them when the economy is all but destroyed. Making themselves the Savior of the economy. It’s all manipulated to keep workers hungry. Been getting a little too fat and comfortable lately.
