so i think what the fed is mainly focused on is labor market and wage.y really want to see that growth being very definitively slower. i think they have used words like clear and convincing evidence. >> so what do you think happens to the economy from here what do two consecutive three quarters of a -- three-quarters of a percentage point hike in interest rates do to the economy? >> well, we've seen a little flavor of what it does to the economy. to the point you made earlier, some of the spending oriented data show that the economy is slowing. obviously we'll see housing slowing as well. remember, all of these things generally starting from a very, very strong beginning. so the momentum is still positive but what the fed wants to see is demand coming down to better match supply and so what we have to see there is things like spending slowing, housing slowing, and then over time they want to see the unemployment rate rise somewhat, not dramatically, but rise to be above the current 3.6 level, somewhere over 4 perhaps, so i think that's what they're looki

jonathon: the fed rakes 75 -- the fed raises 75 basis points. the fed's objectives are more difficult to achieve. pricing and cuts undoes the efficacy of hikes in the first place. lisa: he even put a number to it. a 5% to 10% market rally would cause the fed to see that was going against what they are trying to do and cause them to give guidance, even though they are not giving guidance, that they don't want to see that. how much does it become just a tourney? i think that is what people are looking at. maybe that's why frances donald called it frustration. tom: it is from two different worlds. we do economics, international relations, demands, politics as well. what you just saw there was the denny harvey pivot, coming from two different parts of this industry, and giant economist and an incredibly competent -- competent chris harvey said the same thing. there is a point you pitted the risk on, and that may continue what we have seen. jonathon: they are not alone. that has been the market interpretation not just the last 24 hours, but the last

michael: the fed has to try and do its best. this is a particularly unusual time for all of this to be happening because we don't have specific problems that the fed can watch the indicators like an inventory over bill and try to work its way down. they will focus on inflation and try to get that down and if it comes down, then maybe they don't need to go as far with interest rates and they can see whether they need to cut or not. the question is, are the markets getting too far ahead of themselves? we won't know that for a while either. nobody is going to know and that is the problem. tom: katie, when it comes to the equity markets, something with a big question mark over it. whatever you describe it as, the uptick we have seen across the equity space globally since mid june and how you fold the into the conversation around the fed and inflation outlook. how concerned are you that this is falling apart? katie: it has been curious to see that bounce, whatever metaphor you want to use. many have said you will see a lot of pressur
