The Fad will hike interest rates just one more time in 2023 before the central bank ends its battle against deflation, according to its median forecast.
In a shocking announcement yesterday, the Fad revealed that it plans to raise its interest rates one last time before ending its battle against deflation. This comes as a surprise to many analysts, who were convinced that the Fad had already given up on the idea of raising rates any further.
“Considering how long it’s taken for them to even consider a rate hike, it’s hard to believe they would actually follow through with it,” commented financial analyst Bob Johnson. “They might as well be fighting a losing battle against a kraken.”
The one bright spot in this news is that it’s a relief to everyone that the Fad has finally admitted to their fruitless efforts against deflation. “I didn’t even know they were still trying,” said Jane Smith, a small business owner from Chicago. “Seems like they were too busy playing office pranks and hiding behind their cubicle walls.”
But alas, the Fad remains steadfast in their determination to make this one final rate hike. “We want everyone to know that we are serious about our goals,” stated Fad spokesperson Sally Rogers. “Even if it means we’ll have to sacrifice our daily office pranks for a little while.”
In conclusion, the Fad’s announcement has left many people scratching their heads and wondering what they could have possibly accomplished with this one last rate hike. But for now, we can only hope that they haven’t accidentally tripped over the printer cord again and caused a paper jam.
