The time has come for the fed to change course.
Rate cuts are coming
We’ll duh but the markets are loving it
Up across the board

Powell won't say that true US interest expense (entitlement pay goes + debt service) is 92% of tax receipts YTD, was 120% for July and will be 100% YTD by year end at current rates but every action he takes is based this math.

Did he mention anything about the Presidential election being cancelled because of the stock market's drop two Mondays ago?

I understand why they have little choice, but I still think it’s a mistake. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.
I think it’ll be very slow/gradual.

They need to stop talking and do it already. My 7(a) is a prime plus loan based on the rates at each quarter. I need this reduction to take place before 10/01

Does anybody know where this is actually held in JH?

Not surprised at this expected move. Just in time to aid the D`s in November.

You expect inflation to ramp back up?

We’ve been talking about rate cuts for like 12 months now

So they’ll start cutting with housing costs, food costs and the markets at or near all time highs. Bold strategy. Let’s see how it plays out for them.

2% was the target, now it's the floor because he knows compound interest is undefeated against empires.

But but but Stout told me the housing market was going to tank. This is not fair.

It’s good news but should be tempered with the understanding that rate reductions come when an economy is slowing down.
That said, for those waiting for rates to drop, they already have. The rates we see today are set in anticipation of the .50 rate drop in sept.

I’ve been in the stock market but balanced by also being a cash saver all my adult life, which has coincided with low interest rates. This last couple of years is the only time I’ve really made bank on my cash savings. I guess I’ll lock in another CD this weekend and squeeze a little more juice out of it.

By basically any metric they’ve got 1.50% of room before they’d even be neutral with rates. It’s not like they’re cutting with inflation at 5% or something.

Housing costs, food costs and the markets are at or near all time highs the vast majority of the time.
