 <p>The ongoing economic situation in the United States has certainly been delicate. The Federal Reserve has engaged in a consistent fight against inflation, leading it to enact an interest rate hike campaign that lasted more than a year. With a pause in those hikes, the Fed chair ensured a resume was not out of the question. Yet one economist has warned of the implications of this position.&nbsp;</p> 
 <div class="quads-location quads-ad15192 " id="quads-ad15192" style="float:none;margin:0px 3px 3px 3px;padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;">

 <p>Indeed, economist Peter Schiff has warned of a full-blown financial crisis” arriving amid the Fed’s inflation fight. Specifically, he said that the crisis would occur before the Fed was able to reach its inflation target. Leading Schiff to presume they will alter their target figure long before they make headway on their current stance.&nbsp;</p>

 <p>Responding to the speech, Schiff stated it was a “gross understatement” of events. Subsequently, he stated, “A full-blown financial crisis will ensue long before the target is hit, forcing the Fed to raise the target above 2%.” </p> 
 <p>Thereafter, Schiff remarked that the greatest threat to the US remains domestic, “not Russia or China.” The economist is likely referring to the BRICS summit that took place last week. There, the economic alliance starring Russia and China grew by six countries. Noting an impending shift in geopolitics globally.&nbsp;</p>
