It's all nonsense and we all know it - CPI @ 8.6% actually means 25%+ inflation in the real world.
If they want to slam everything then they will do - they're not reacting to anything here, it's their plan and their doing as ever and time will tell what they want to achieve and how.
People are currently being asked to pay >6% on their US 30-year mortgages against a backdrop of completely nuked Discretionary Spend so, yes, IMO if they even raise another 50bps, never mind 150bps, they risk going into the mid-terms with housing on its knees (at best) and the job market falling to pieces too but maybe that's the plan - who knows with the Money Guys.
FWIW - I was just checking the Bitcoin chart and its current oversold status on the weekly RSI is a first in its entire history - it's literally never been oversold on the weekly before :)
