  • Is The Fed Setting Up Trump To Be The Scapegoat?

    From zerohedge.com

    In Greek mythology, Scylla and Charybdis are two mythical sea monsters guarding a narrow strait. Navigating the sail successfully would require not getting too close to one monster while trying to avoid the other. The job of the Federal Reserve has often been compared to (mistakenly, though) the above, wherein they have to navigate the economy on its dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability. The Phillips Curve is the most standard model that depicts this supposed inverse relationship between unemployment and price inflation. Neo-Keynesian economics has broadened the interpretation of the Phillips curve ... (full story)

Great article :

Read it.

Even a 0% rate today cannot prevent a bust of the financial systems that is floating on a sea of asset bubbles – an AI bubble that dwarfs the NASDAQ 2000 bubble; a housing bubble that is far bigger than the 2008 housing bubble; and a US bond bubble that is bigger than these two bubbles combined. The bust at this point is inevitable and imminent – the timeframes would be a few months and not a few years.

The current rate of 4.25% to 4.5% is way too low to contain price inflation meaningfully. The National debt is increasing at an even higher pace than before, and monetary inflation is a natural outcome, indicating that the rates are very accommodative.

Honestly I don't even understand the game the fed and Trump is playing
they are those "special" kids at school that prefer to eat the sand from the playground.

The Fed were the ones that made the money printer go overtime and created part of this mess, lets not forget that.

High rates is a cost just like tariffs, taxes, labor. 70% of treasuries is domestic so the high rates is a stimmy check to americans. High rates choke supply and boost demand resulting in inflation. If inflation comes down it will be in spite of the fed, not because of.
