If I were Jay Powell, I'd be tempted to RAISE rates just to annoy him.
Ultimately to get things back on the right track again rates do need to be raised substantially. It would cause shorter-term pain but would be beneficial to America over the longer-term. This race toward zero again with talks of potentially taking things negative is extremely reckless fiscal policy. If the Fed does this it will be catastrophic for our future. Negative rates are a black hole. There is no way out.
Was wondering who the right was going to blame for any upcoming recession, definitely not trumps abysmal trade policies but hey it must be the media.
An inverted yield curve is one of the recognized technical indicators that a recession is more likely to occur within 1-2 years. It is not a partisan thing.
Big money moves from equities to treasuries - flight to safety.
Markets don’t like uncertainty. It is not helpful when Trump has not demonstrated a remotely coherent trade policy and makes a series of panic tweets, blaming FRB.
Trump has presided over more single greatest day point losses than any other POTUS. However, in terms of percentages, while an eye opener, the losses are not particularly alarming.
Media reports both point losses and gains as well as percentages, every day regardless of who sits the oval.
Get information directly and not filtered by TV talking heads who often have an agenda. Listen to Wilbur Ross who is a billionaire so knows high finance.
Uh, he is the current Secretary of Commerce, of course he's not going to say a recession is upcoming! To do so would be an admission that his boss' policies have failed.

Well the Dims great yesterday 800 point drop didn't turn out so great today with the market going up....maybe ya'lls media can scare ups some successive drops like yesterday....you better hope so.
Yeah it's a little naive to blame the media for reporting what financial experts are expressing as concern.
Is the role of media to ignore stories that don't support the conservative agenda?
Apparently if you are a Trump defender, you can't allow the media to report anything. That is why Trump tweets 24/7 -- to keep his sycophants focused on what he says and of course he tells them all the news outlets are lying. I guess he is not a fan of the 1st amendment. I know he really wants to be Vladimir Putin, but dog-gone, Trumpy, this is the U.S. - you foolish man.
First they created fake news, now its a fake recession? I guess we'll just have to have alternative economics along with alternative news to keep us from getting hornswoggled by the " official experts".
Anyway, keep up the good work, Mr. Trump. But you still have another 5 years in office so don't start resting on your laurels just yet.
