I don't see any reason to cut rates at this point. It's not like we are at some extreme level or anything.
Most people's biggest investment is their house, and then on the other end you've got young people that cant afford to get in one at least partly because of rates. Years of having rates so low hyper-inflated housing and it can't be allowed to normalize because of the ramifications for older Americans. The amount of people who basically have no retirement savings and are planning on living on SS with their house as their only real asset would shock you.

When asked most admit they are doing quite well but just happen to lucky or super smart.
If you're looking into financial news or trying to have a financial discussion online, you're already in a small subset of people and don't realize it. People who regularly post here probably earn more on average than even your average TD poster, and are definitely more financially aware. So yeah, those people are doing well. The paycheck to paycheck crowd is suffering, and that (among other things) is why Biden is at like 35% approval.

Food and energy are the least of his problems with respect to current inflation rates.
however, I would say food inflation is a significant political problem.

I was told inflation was transitory by the experts.

Yeah, your observation about M1 growth driving inflation can only be true if velocity also went up with it. It nose dived instead and is an indication that the increase is base money in the form of bank reserves which never left the Feds balance sheet. Another way to view it is that it's not an accurate measure of the money supply.

Yes. Seriously.
Point me to a specific thing they’ve done that is politically motivated?
They’ve been right and wrong, sure, but I don’t framing Powell and co as some partisan hacks is quite a leap.

I guess the broader point is that Powell and the FOMC have done nothing to help Biden, so expecting them to do something because of the election seems foolish.

There are people on td who unironically believe that oil and gas companies are colluding to HELP biden and the dems get reelected lol.

I didn't think reserves were counted in M1, I thought they were M0?

They’re in both.
