During Tesla's Q4 earnings call, Elon Musk talked about the central bank's moves against inflation. He said that the Feds should tread carefully while expressing his concerns that the stock market could be at risk.
Musk also expressed how the Fed is at risk of affecting all equities, which would be extremely dangerous for the whole market. The S&P 500 lost 20% last year while officials hiked interest rates by 425 basis points.
