Evidence Quote

the biggest risk to financial markets today. The biggest risk to people's portfolios um is that energy prices spike. And I want to be very clear. I'm not saying energy prices are going to spike. But if energy prices spike for whatever reason, you could be very quickly an inflation rate at three and a half 4%.
