A Bank of America research note issued on Friday says the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) could take the Fed Funds rate up to 6% in the next year.

  • "Fed ain't done with hikes" says BoA citing persistently high inflation
  • rate hikes could usher in 4% unemployment, or higher
  • Says there is a 25% chance of a US recession next year
  • even without a recession, there is a 70% chance of a slowdown
