Trump doesn' get lower interest rates

[VitaMan]

And he shouldn't. Not until the effects of his increased tariffs on inflation are known.

Prices are increasing all over the place due to the tariffs.

But Trump will continue name calling and ranting on Truth Social

Correction: The American people don't get lower rates.

Have to wait and see


As Chairman Powell said, the full effect of tariffs on inflation is still uncertain.


Meantime prices continue to rise. Core inflation up higher than expectations.

No, we don't understand why. Give us a detailed explaination of your *feeling* for comparison to the "experts".

There’s alway been an adversarial relationship between every President and the Fed. However this time 2 of it board members voted for a .25% decrease in interest rates. That’s never happened before. There seems to be a mutiny brewing among it’s members. The Fed chairman is just being overly cautious.

[VitaMan]

Does anyone know the effect the tariff rates will have on inflation......No.


That is the reason for being cautious.


Of course Trump knows. And MAGAs know. Because they immediately call FAKE for any data presented that is not favorable to them.

The fed is looking for stability in the market but they are not seeing it. When the administration keeps changing their economic policies in stupid and unexpected ways it’s up to the fed to provide stability to the economy.

Having the president threaten the fed is just another example of the chaos that the fed is trying to overcome.

If donny wants a firm response on the interest rate, it stands to reason that he has to act on how fiscal policy is.

Being a TACO leads to the rates he whines and cries about.

Come on, Maggies! Tell your Fearless Leader to develop a spine and stand firm on how he wants this ship to steer.

Trump made a mess of the copper markets the last 2 weeks.
Now at least 90 more days before tariff decisions on Mexico.
Tariffs on India re not clear.


All this is more uncertainty from Trump.

With lower interest rates, the housing market will become active season.

This year, with interest rates where they are, I have had several folks knock on my front door to ask if I wanted to sell my high milage 2001 Chevy pick up. It is just not for sale t the time.

Do you only watch the Unicorn News Service (UNS)?

Trump calls FED chairman a "moron".


Regardless of the issues being discussed, Trump should not be dragging the discussion into the mud.


But that is what he does. And that is one of many reasons he may be the worst President the USA has ever had.

We should get lower interest rates because anyone carrying a credit card balance will have less interest to pay on a monthly basis as a result for starters. The Fed will continue to print currency/debt notes, not money, so inflation will continually get worse as times moves forward. Remember, the current financial system that that we're on was established in 1971 (54 years old) and the grand experiment to buy up the world thru fraud is coming to an end.

I can think of much worse things to call Chairman Powell and it would be well deserved. I think Biden is the worst the US has ever had but it's not him in charge LMAO. They're all puppets.
