Covid, Inflation and The Federal Reserve

July 27, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm EDT

Covid has had a dramatic impact on everyone's lives. It has also had a dramatic impact on the global economy and financial markets. We are in a period of inflation not seen in decades, and our central bank is scrambling to control it.

In this educational workshop, Tim Baker, CFA and Founder and CEO of Metric Financial, will explain how economic shutdowns created a split in the economy, who benefited (and who didn't) and how that led us to today. Tim will explore what the Fed watches and what tools it has available as well as what we may see going forward.
