But the fed has stated their goal, for decades now, has been a target of 2% inflation per year. What you're describing is an infinite deflation scenario, which is not the goal of the fed.

And also increasing the price lowers demand. So by raising price you decrease the number of interested "buyers", so it's not always a net profit move to increase price.
