The Fed is expected to be aggressive on raising the interest rate

The Fed is raising the interest rate at the fastest pace in 30 years. Although US CPI falls from a 40-year high of 9.1%, it is still high than the target of 2%. Fed officials think the Fed should take proactive steps in response.
The ECB will raise the interest rate to curb inflation

Lagarde warned that Eurozone inflation had been revising the record high for the 10th straight month and it would continue increasing. Bottlenecks in supply and repressed service demands have made inflation expand to industry sector and service sector. Rising energy price caused by Russia-Ukraine conflict is major driver of Eurozone inflation.
