 🤔 Interesting case 
Although I still don’t completely buy into it. 

*Tight Labor Markets Wage Pressure
Low unemployment leads to fewer available workers, driving up wages and labor costs for businesses.

*Inflationary Pressures
Higher wages can increase consumer spending, driving demand and potentially leading to higher prices and inflation.

*Interest Rate Hikes
Central banks may raise interest rates to combat inflation, increasing borrowing costs and potentially slowing down economic activity.

*Economic Cycles
Low unemployment often occurs at the peak of an economic expansion, where imbalances and vulnerabilities can lead to a downturn.

*Overheating Economy
Very low unemployment may indicate an unsustainably fast-growing economy, increasing the risk of an economic correction or recession. https://image.nostr.build/ca452144a6699a005bdfd06f8489e319bd62a7d8728a1a9e3f1c68ab5eb8c2cc.jpg
