Hell no raise them restore value to the dollar. dont be greedy. come on you know you wanna raise them
A bear market would look very bad under the current administration so a rate cut, a bailout, or a huge liquidity injection will be administered if appears the S&P will close below 1252.
So the govt is going to look bad if the stock market goes down as opposed to a housing bubble implosion, significant inflation and an employment downturn? The fed's is almost out of options at this point. They have thrown everything they got at it and they have only really delayed the inevitable. Wake up to reality, we have been a bear rally. Propping up the stock market is not the fed's job and now as their balance sheet is more and more exposed they are going to have stop catering to the market. On top of it all because inflation is becoming quite concerning, we will be lucky if they just maintain these low rates rather than raise them.
