Why can’t the FED just get over with this recession and raise it by 150-200 BPS?


Ok so hear me out. You may think this is a stupid idea, but I think it’s stupid as well, but it might just work. I’m not joking either. Why can’t the FED purposefully cause a recession now and immediately put on 150 basis points in a single day, rather than wait later? Even though unemployment will rise immediately, stock markets gonna halt and -10% in a day and cause an imminent downturn, but we still will handle inflation just like that. So far, 80% of CEOs and CFOs think a recession will happen in 2022-3. I think there will be a recession as well, but a mild one (maybe DOW'S low could be 23-24,000, but that's just making numbers up). I know why the Fed waits to hike as well. It’s to try to make a “soft landing”. In reality, they don’t give a shit. If you want to make a counterclaim, that can help me and other people know interesting facts about the market that I haven’t heard of, so please DO give your opinion on this statement. Criticism can help here.
