The Great Inflation, which peaked in the late 1970s and early 1980s in the United States, ended primarily due to the aggressive monetary policies implemented by Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker. By significantly raising interest rates, the Fed aimed to curb inflation, which had reached over 13%. This approach led to a recession in the early 1980s but ultimately succeeded in stabilizing prices and restoring confidence in the economy. The combination of tight monetary policy and structural changes in the economy helped to bring inflation under control.
