Higher inflation could trigger recession - Deutsche bank
Deutsche Bank economists fear rising inflation could lead to a structural recession as high price expectations and the response from the central bank (tightening) might squeeze economic output in the near-to-mid-term.
Wage price inflation, full employment, and Trump's fiscal stimulus is boosting inflation in the US, according to Deutsche Bank.
It also believes a weaker dollar and higher oil prices are the two factors pushing US inflation up and so the inflation will likely overshoot the target sooner than expected.
