I just heard this from the only billionaire I know. I am sure he got this from watching every thing and their private investment bankers.

Any of you investment guys want to do the counter point on this or something?

I think a lot of us said this when the Fed began chasing inflationary “ghost” by significantly increasing the interest rates every month without taking the time to see the actual effects or impacts, (which take 3 to 4 quarters to realize), since so much of this was due to Covid and related supply issues etc , It’s like using an atom bomb to get rid of a few beavers.

Typical Fed bullshite, they get more wrong then they get right lately. Downvote away but just the messenger. Smart money will adjust their portfolio accordingly. Hopefully, this will only last a few quarters

Wrong

Keeping interest rates at 0 was worse

Their mistake was not raising rates earlier

Thankfully, ours isn't an export-driven economy and the dollar will still be strong enough to buy what we need from overseas. There may be a global pinch, but we'll ride it out better than everyone else.

Your timeline is off. Dems will not allow such things before end of 2024. They'll kick the can down the road however they can.

Not in the U.S. For all of the frickups of our government, we still have a surplus of food. The Middle East and North Africa could be proper fricked though.

Sorry, dude, we export a TON of services to the tunes of billions of dollars. Which dropped like a rock.

We've been in a "classically defined" recession for months. Sending $ and arms to UKR doesn't produce "exports" unless you're the Democrat government in power.

The mistake was not doing a more gradual series of interest rate raises and seeing the impact. The Fed essentially panicked

Only a little over 10% of GDP is exports, with a sizeable chunk of that being energy and agriculture, which aren't going anywhere. We import FAR more manufactured goods than we export.

We have less farm land than previous and I don’t see an end to this. They would kill all the cows and cover those pastures with solar if they pleased.

I mean your beef and potato prices are just going to continue to rise.
