MarketWatch highlights a debate on Wall Street over whether inflation is truly under control and why investors may be wrong to assume it is harmless.

The outlet says the bigger issue is the federal government’s debt outlook, arguing that Uncle Sam needs inflation, not just economic growth, to help ease the current debt crisis.

MarketWatch frames the concern as a warning that common interpretations of inflation progress may not align with what the government’s finances require.
