Megan analyzes the latest Federal Reserve meeting, where decisions were made that could change the face of the financial landscape. The Federal Reserve had a surprising hawkish stance, a move that was unexpected by the market. Megan illuminates how rampant inflation and escalating energy prices can influence this monetary policy shift, and what that could mean for the economy. 

Megan reviews the numbers behind the Federal Reserve's projections - projected GDP growth, inflation target rates, and a potential increase in the Fed funds rate for the next year. She provides valuable insights into these numbers and their implications, setting the stage for an expanded discussion on the future of interest rates. Megan points out the subtleties of these higher interest rates and the potential for further rate hikes.
