    The much long anticipated fed rate cut has finally arrived. Wallstreet is finally getting what they have been begging for.....

    Time to get even more liquidity into equities and juice the markets greater for the next big assest bubble.....


    My prediction

    25 basis point cut and an extremely dovish statement, cause you have to keep wallstreet propped up.

    Drop mic.....

    "Too late too little" everyone will be screaming with a 25 basis point cut tomorrow. I think twice 50 bps cuts in a row are required. The risk is a recession because of the FED being too slow. I mean they have been wrong at the begin of hike cycle explaining us with a new model of larger fluctuations of inflation, and because of Covid it might be only temporary. They have been 100% wrong. If they do not cut 50 bps tomorrow and also again 50 bps they are just again much behind the curve. I hope they have learnt from their prior mistakes, but I am not sure of course. It is more a wish.

    75 basis point cut?? What the fu*k does she see that warrants a 75 basis point cut at tomorrow's meeting??

    I sure wish she was the fed chairman just to see how she would control the market rate environment!!


    She has been begging for rate cuts since the day they started raising them.
    What a joke she is, she desperately wants rates back to 0% it seems, even though 5% rate funds are still historically low.

    50? And another 50?
    Nothing warrants this, behind the curve? Been hearing about this for quite some time ....

    I don't know about you but the consumer seems to be literally recession proof and they are the ones who make up 70% of the gdp and according to gdp and those wallstreet earnings forecasts everything seems to be just fine and fu$king Dandy!!!!!

    The funny thing is, yea a nominal rate at 5% may arguably be "restrictive", but most of the curve is far below that. Wildly inverted yield curve and shit guys.

    I would love it if Powell fucks up again.

    Most on Wallstreet (two third) are expecting a 50 bps cut (me too) and that for good reasons.

    this might be the first time in fed history that they will cut interests with markets at all time highs.
     
  10. IMV, it's that $5T Covid stimmy + another $4T Dem deficit spending.. $9T of EXCESS money sloshing around in the system. It keeps changing hands for new buyers to buy again and again. Fed never drained excess reserves, so we're likely locked into high inflation until Fed does something about it. (BTW, the Fed's "2.5% inflation" is as phony as a $3 bill).
