In the medium and long term, on the other hand, the Fed's rate moves certainly do influence inflation. Milton Friedman's famous analysis showed that monetary policy operates with a lag, which he called "long and variable."
-"One part of how we influence inflation is quite tangible. Against a backdrop of stable inflation expectations, we raise rates and that reduces demand and eventually prices. Deposit rates increase, thereby creating more incentive to save rather than spend. The dollar appreciates, lessening demand for exports and lowering the price of imports. Borrowing rates rise, reducing capital investment and consumer spending. That's particularly true in interest-sensitive sectors like housing, auto and consumer durables. You are already seeing mortgage rates go up, for example."
-"Another part is less tangible and occurs through a psychological effect over the longer term. Individuals and firms build expectations about future inflation. Firms then make their pricing and compensation decisions - and individuals make their purchase and employment decisions - in the context of those expectations.
If the Fed does its part to control inflation, expectations and price and wage increases stay stable and anchored. If not, they don't, as you might argue has been happening in Turkey."
