janelle: it's a great point.utral is around 2%, we have a long way to get there, and we need to get back to neutral so that the fed has the power to fight inflation. 100 basis points is certainly a move in the right direction, but still is accommodative. the biggest question we have is around timing. the expectation is a quarter-point every quarter, but if we look at what the fed has done around the balance sheet, it's been more aggressive than in past cycles. while we don't see 50 in march, should it be every meeting? that will help us get to the pace faster. jon: you made the point earlier it is a busy week on earnings front. we have talked about the more dramatic selling we have seen in the tech sector. could any of these earnings stories change the tune, or will we be laser fixated on fed talk? gina: it is hard to outdo the fed when the fed is talking about the balance sheet as well as rate hikes and the market has been already twitter about when we will get qt, could we get 50 basis points in march? the real

i'm janelle dumas on. welcome around the world. the only chron variant is causing colvin 19 cases, declined to record highs. that's increasing pressure on the supply of coven tests, and hospital bags, and on governments to get the wave of infections under control. britain's recent spike in oma kron cases is making it harder for ambulance teams to find available hospital beds for coven. 19 patients. the health care system is reaching its limits. previous waves of the pandemic didn't have a single day with more than 100000 new cases reported. one day last week, we had 200000 people test positive and the make. his figure today is another $218000.00, though with that include some delayed reports. so anyone who thinks our battle with covey is over, i'm afraid, is profoundly wrong. in forest, johnson wants to keep schools open with testing and other preventative measures. the aim is to avoid another lockdown, but they're still a threat of critical infrastructure collapsing, such as police fire departments, waterworks and transportation.
