They are pausing rate hikes because inflation has slowed down.

No, quite the opposite. What I said is correct, which you can verify by looking up inflation figures, but I'll save you the trouble.

US Inflation Rate is at 4.05%, compared to 4.93% last month and 8.58% last year.

Also, it would be great if, in the future, you could put some more thought into your choice of words. We can disagree with each other without such a hostile tone and if I understand correctly, especially beehaw is trying to be a bit of nicer place and you weren't very nice in your comment to me.
