A little inflation is okay. In fact, that's a sign of a growing economy. The problem is if inflation rises a little too fast, which causes bond yields to rise a little too fast.
If the FED can engineer a soft landing with low inflation and slowly rising interest rates, equities should rally.
Am I wrong in thinking that this pull back is a good thing for the long term?
As an owner of many funds, I personally never think of pull-backs as a "good thing." It's a thing, and it happens, and it's normal, and sometimes there are discernable reasons and other times there aren't.
I suppose for those who are not in the market or are hoping for a "sale" on stock prices so they can purchase more, they would see a pullback as a good (possibly great) thing.
Any day my investments are down, I don't think "yeah, woot!"
Sure they do. They won't let me down. Just watch. It's almost time. We'll see who's naked when the tide rolls back.
The next question is, are we going to do anything about it?
No, they don't. Those messages were against the federal reserve creation, and the global central banking system. Whether you realize it or not, as stated in the Japan example, the modern FED is the reason we are not in a Japanese style 30 year stagnation/decline.
If you want to do anything about your current issues, call/email/write your congressmen. Pretty simple. They are the one's who will control how/what fiscal policy objectives will influence monetary policy.
