Bill Ackman warned the Fed that slowing inflation to its 2% target is no longer realistic. He raised the prospect of a "deep, job-destroying recession" if the Fed tries to hit its goal. "The @federalreserve 2% inflation target is no longer credible," he tweeted on Wednesday. "Businesses need price stability, but can thrive in a world with 3% stable inflation." Ackman warned that attempting to force inflation down to 2% would likely cause the economy to shrink and unemployment to spike.
