Everyone needed to keep in mind a couple of key things. Economic conditions need to be right to consider a cut. Trump fueled uncertainty with regard to tariffs has made this difficult. Also Powell does not make the decision unilaterally. Majority vote of the FOMC does. Trumps telling Powell to cut 3 points is absurd. Look for .25 in September

Agreed it will be a .25 rate cut in September.
Anything greater would be an admission the Feds screwed up by not making .25 rate cut earlier. As the real estate market is beginning to crumble.

Trump's fault, not Powell's. Trump's administration should have reported accurate job numbers to the FED. Not being honest and straightforward will sometimes bite you on the ass.
I think there is a good chance the Fed will cut a 1/2 point in September. Trump will get off Powell's back for thirty days.

Was the lady in charge of job numbers not a Biden appointee? She is the one who fudged the numbers. She also fudged them in 2024 to help Harris get elected. She overstated the Jobs Growth in March 2024 by approximately 818,000 and, then again, right before the 2024 Presidential Election, in August and September, by 112,000. She got canned once Trump got his own folks look at her faked numbers.

Trump fired her for reporting only 73,000 jobs added in July. Had that number been 173, 000, Trump would have given her a raise.

No need to be defensive. Trump has done some very good things so far. And some not so good things. I am pulling for him. If he succeeds, we all succeed. Really no need for you to carry his water. Unless you want to. To each his/ her own. I will continue to call balls and strikes.

Lots of people like to call 'balls and strikes'. Surprisingly few of them ever read the rule book, they just speak their opinion and call it 'Truth'.

Actually, Joe Biden and the Covid cluster **** convinced me to retire early. My only regret is I didn't do it sooner.
Back to my question. Do you think the economy is booming right now? A simple yes or no will do. You shouldn't feel attacked or insulted by the question.

I think the economy is neither booming nor crashing.
Not defensive....merely weary of your hysterics. Been ongoing since last spring.
However if mortgage rates do not drop to at least 5.5 % by the end of the year. the economy could be slumping the 1st quarter of 2026.
Dems know this....so they will fight rate any drop before the end of 2025.
