Companies aren't going to spend as much on like trying out new things or being more innovative.
It's not really the time to like be taking risks.
And then on top of that, we sometimes see job losses or wage freezes, which is already kind of happening.
So it is quite scary.
Then you kind of look at all that and you go, Sam, like,
Job losses, expensive mortgage, no spending, business shutting down.
Like this sounds really sad.
Is there any silver lining to interest rates rising?
And the answer is yes.
I mean, there's two things that you can kind of be a little bit happy about when interest rates rise.
The first is interest rates rise to help mitigate inflation.
So when inflation starts to go up a little bit too much and suddenly everything is getting more costly, an increase in interest rates kind of has a flow in effect
to help cool inflation down.
And so that's why the Fed in the US says, hmm, do you know what?
We're going to sort of like put a little bit of pressure on inflation, just start to like push it down.
It's a little bit like whack-a-mole where you push down inflation.
But to do that, you have to rise interest rates.
And so it's this like delicate dance between it's kind of like being a woman and you don't want to dress too attractive at work because you get the wrong attention, but you also seem to not...
go as far if you appear like you don't care about your appearance and it's this like annoying middle ground that you have to walk the fed has the same issue but the fed is not a woman trying to get a promotion the fed is just trying to keep inflation at bay and also interest rates at bay
Maybe not my best example, but you're kind of understanding where I'm coming from.
