The last soft landing came in 1994

There have never been more open jobs in the U.S. than there are now

Not long ago, there were real hopes of a return to Goldilocks — an economy that’s not too hot and not too cold. 

The last soft landing came in 1994 — and many would complain that the Alan Greenspan Fed on that occasion sparked a recession in Latin America and the rest of the emerging markets, even if one was avoided in the U.S.

What Is A Real Rate, Anyway?

Using the real yield on inflation-protected bonds as a gauge of the long-term real interest rate is possibly the biggest mistake in finance. 

The ultra-low real yield on inflation protected bonds captures nothing more than a stampede for inflation protection overwhelming a tiny supply of inflation-protected bonds.
