The new monetary policy strategy the Fed adopted in August 2020 has left it without good options. It can follow the present course of slowly increasing interest rates, which will allow high inflation to persist for at least the next two years, or it can increase rates more rapidly, which will bring down inflation, but likely push the economy into a recession.

美联储在2020年8月采取的新货币政策已经让其没有选择余地。美联储可以按现行方式逐渐上调利率,这样会让高通胀至少再持续两年,也可以快速上调利率抑制通胀,但却很可能使经济陷入衰退。
