Musk pointed to 2024: What are economists saying?
Prior to that, Twitter’s new executive commented, in some cases, on the recession and the Fed’s policy on interest rates. According to media reports, Elon Musk, in his previous responses to some posts, said that the recession is likely to continue until the spring of 2024. Musk’s comments came with expectations that the FED will make some new statements next week. Some experts expect the Fed to increase interest rates.
Although there is no confirmation on this issue yet, there have been predictions in the international media for the last few weeks that the Fed may increase interest rates even more. In some media reports earlier, it was also mentioned that the rate of increase in interest rates by the FED could be reduced this time. This means that the FED may raise interest rates again, but the size of the rate hike may decrease. In one of its meetings, the Fed pointed out that there was little signal that inflation was easing. Forty-two economists responding to Bloomberg’s survey of the Fed rate estimate that the probability of a recession rises to 60 percent next year.
