The FED did a JUMBO cut 50 bps in SEP 2024 at the exact same core CPI number as today of 2.4%. If they do any hikes just before the midterm elections, it would expose the FED as an arm of the Democrat party.

Get rid of orange cuck in the oval office before really end up in an economic freefall! Him and his $5000 dividend that would really flip this country upside down with inflation!

IMO, Warsh is Trump foot Washer, has him on speed-dial! Fed ain't gonna raise rates with election less than 60 days away, wait till after election. Gives Trump and his inside cronnies opportunity to short the market late Oct! Then when market crashes / corrects 20% to 30%, as AI is way to big for britches. Trump blames rigged elections and any Wall St panic on Democrats taking over Congress... Have you not seen this playbook before?! Meanwhile, BTC takes off as it's the new digital gold that can be easily moved across borders without the prying eyes of Guba-mints...

Fed hike, no hike, there's no stopping the inflationary pressures of oil prices at these levels or issues with tariffs driving prices beyond the consumer. The Fed is quite frankly stuck between a rock and a hard place. And what will Bessent do?

A 50 point hike would be catastrophic lol. That’s not gonna happen. That would be a wild surprise that sends the stock market into freefall because they’ll think there’s an economic crisis.

I voted .25 cut because that’s what Fed SHOULD do.

You may recall that the FED did a JUMBO cut 50 bps in SEP 2024 at the exact same core CPI number as today of 2.4%. If they do any hikes just before the midterm elections, it would expose the FED as an arm of the Democrat party.
