Jordan Belfort gives economic outlook as inflation continues to climb

The entrepreneur discusses the economy and what to expect in the coming months on 'Jesse Watters Primetime.'

Jordan Belfort, the former stockbroker also known as the "Wolf of Wall Street," predicted that inflation will get worse Wednesday on "Jesse Watters Primetime."

"Remember, Obama said elections have consequences?" Belfort asked. "Here are the consequences."

He pointed out that "this is a self-inflicted gunshot wound," noting it "starts with energy policy, which created a cycle of inflation, among other things."

"It's really been a poorly managed economy for the administration and this is what we're seeing," he added.

"I lived as a young kid through 20%-plus inflation, when interest rates were at 22%," said Belfort. "I don't know if we're going back there, but I think there's going to be pressure on the market because of inflation. Until that corrects itself, you're probably going to see a lower stock market versus a higher stock market."
