Jerome Powell: Fed doesn’t need to be ‘in a hurry’ to reduce interest rates

[@jessikapretty]

Predicting inflation starting to rise again this quarter while leading indicators showing economy slowing (not to mention governm*nt figures pumped up for the election). Global economy very weak which affects US. Fed dropping rates 0.50 shows they're VERY worried about financial downturn/crisis. interest rates coming down are also an indication banks are LESS willing to loan money into existence. The question here is where is the inflation going to come from in the near term? Consumers are mostly tapped out which is 70% of US economy (consumption). Yes inflation very likely to return but not before it continues to come down... Inflation can be a concern, but remember, certain assets like stocks and Crypto’s acts as a hedge. Long & short-term trading is generally safer, allowing investors to weather market volatility. I have managed to grow a nest egg of around 3.2 B'tc to a decent 27B'tc in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Aria Cookings Crypto, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

One thing I know for certain is crypto is here to stay, the only thing that leaves is the people who don't manage their risk. Manage that, or the market will manage it for you. With the right strategies you will survive.

[@gmsujan-pe2uh]

Over the years, I've been a part of numerous trading programs, sifting through a barrage of information. Yet, nothing has come close to the sheer clarity, depth, and precision of Aria's insights. It's akin to finding a diamond in a coal mine.

[@Josealjornaavila]

Aria Cookings strategy has normalized winning trades for me and it’s a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started.

Fed: no hurry to lower the interest rate and risk higher inflation Stock Market: No, no, no! Screw inflation. We want an extended rally!

[@istvanpraha]

People obsessed with driving stocks more think stocks go up with inflation. They don't know that's not true; what is true is that earnings are supposed to go up with inflation, driving stocks hire. Not a direct relationship.

[@nozar7]

At the same time, this sudden shift right after the election feels strange. We had a 50 basis point cut just before the election, followed by another 25, with no indication that they were concerned about inflation. Now, right after the election, it’s suddenly, 'Yeah, we don’t need to lower rates that quickly.' A Fed that changes course so abruptly isn’t good for anyone.

[@istvanpraha]

@@nozar7 he still feels too dovish for me. I mean, they have no clue what middle class life is like. Everything is an asset bubble and ''no one is hiring. People under 40 who don't have student loans paid off and don't have 401Ks are absolutely screwed. Yet Powell is still talking about the economy like it's only ever slightly off-keel. He's so out of touch, both before and after election.

[@headspaceandtiming2114]

Spot on. The Fed may wish they held on to every BP because the facade that they call a strong economy could fall on anything.

[@sarawilliam696]

The Fed's talk of interest rate cut leaves me pondering what stocks to buy now and when do I sell? I'm unsure how to properly allocate my money to achieve an optimal portfolio in this present economy, my goal is $3m for retirement.

[@PatrickFitzgerald-cx6io]

navigating market volatility can be challenging, it might be beneficial consulting with an advisor to provide personalized insights based on your specific situation and financial position

[@Justinmeyer1000]

No doubt, getting proper financial advice is invaluable, my portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and just yielded 120% from early last year. I and my advisor are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take another year.

[@NoorJari406]

I’ve been considering getting one, but haven't been proactive about it. Can you recommend your advisor? I could really use some assistance.

[@Justinmeyer1000]

‘’Sophie Lynn Carrabus’’ is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’ll find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.

[@NoorJari406]

excellent share, no BS. just copied and pasted her full name on my browser, thankfully her site came up after scrolling a bit, she seems first-rate

[@aperson1181]

Solid household balance sheets? Did she check the households' outstanding debt?

[@Kaustavpatell]

I'm ecstatic with Trump's victory and the year-end market surge. Which hidden jewels in the upcoming bull run would you buy with 150 grand right now? My goal is to position myself for a prosperous Q1 in 2025.

[@frankedwardark]

Index Funds & ETFs: 40-50%, Emerging Markets (e.g., VWO): 10-15%, Dividend Stocks: 10-20%, Growth Stocks/Small-Caps: 10-20%, REITs: 5-10%

[@kurtKking]

"DCA DCA" is the sloppy term but the key. My dollar portfolio i DCA with is made up of 30% PLTR, 25% NVDA, 15% VOO and over 30% in digital assets, thanks to my CFA. This strategy is what works for my spouse and I. We've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends. Q3 taxable divs this year was $18,388 this year.

[@victoriaabott]

I find your situation fascinating. Would you be willing to suggest a trusted advisor you've worked with?

[@kurtKking]

Sure i don't mind. I've stuck with ‘’*TRUDY ELIZABETH STOUFFER*” for years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look her up.

[@victoriaabott]

Thank you for the lead. I searched her up, and I have sent her a message. I hope she gets back to me soon.

Just wait till you see how much worse off they'll be under TRUMP.

[@kyle-ri5mz]

just checking in to see where this "good place" is? A country where nobody under 30 will ever own a home or be able to afford a family is not a country.

[@ed-gn6kl]

exactly. smoke in mirrors and gaslighting.

[@istvanpraha]

also if you're laid off at 45 as business is slow, your network's jobs are also doing poorly, and jobs aren't being created or go to India, you will have to fight to get a driver/delivery job or front desk at a medical office, even if you're in a big city that used to have hundreds of listed jobs. Fast food isn't hiring at the moment. Ask me how I know! Can't move for work if something comes up somewhere else given the housing bubble anywhere there are even mediocre jobs.

[@gary9080]

He must not be talking about the same country we are?

[@simpiwemaqwara2184]

Why fix it if it's not broken.Spot on Mr Powell

[@irenmolnar221]

NO rate cut in will fuel INFLATION!!!!!

[@davidsoncl1]

Why were interest rates during the Obama presidency near zero the entire time?

[@santoshrathod123]

There was a thing called GFC in 2008 before Obama got elected

[@davidsoncl1]

@ So the internet rates were pegged at near zero for eight years? If it was good then, why isn’t it good now?

[@irenmolnar221]

They should not cut the rate everything going up again!!!! Hard working people going to be screwed

[@JohnBeen-r3v]

This time last year I considered crypto without much knowledge and decided to have a consultation with a fiduciary, and it was incredibly insightful. I got into the market with 15k, One year and a couple of months in, and I’m up with 450k. I truly cannot stress enough how helpful experts in this field are!

[@Gracejay-d2e]

Yes, the crypto market is really taking off and Bitcoin is in good shape to start trading now

[@limaken]

How can one start, most times people don't know where to start when it comes to crypto. But it would be great if you can provide proper guidance on steps to follow please

[@JohnBeen-r3v]

As a beginner investor, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable. Myself, I’m guided by my Coach . A widely known crypto consultant

[@LouisRichard-ri4mu]

*Now, I Just realized that the secret to making a million is saving for better trades. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money trading.. I Traded with 10k in Crypto and made about $146k,but guess what? I put it all back and traded again and now I am rounding up close to a million*

The first step to successful investment is figuring your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but it's very advisable you make use of professional.

[@LouisSmith-wt9vh]

Since working with Mary Peter, She transformed my investment strategy, my stock portfolio keeps increasing, turning a $20,000 investment into $478,000 in less than a year. Her insights on market trends and stock selection have been invaluable. If you’re looking to boost your investments, she’s the one to trust!

[@headspaceandtiming2114]

The Fed might wish they held on to every BP. When government spending drives the economy it’s a facade. Hopefully Trump can initiate true growth. That’s the only way out of this.

[@ChloeCarter-kd7gz]

The Fed shouldn’t cut the rates; everything will become too expensive, and those who work hard will be severely impacted.

[@LeahLewis-ny9iu]

Honestly, a rate cut would only fuel the country’s inflation. There are so many people living paycheck to paycheck, and it would only make their situation worse.

[@BrianAlbert-hh3pi]

I knew it-Trump lied. I just can’t understand why Powell would fix something that isn’t broken. They don’t have the best interests of Americans at heart. We’re all going to be affected, not just the average American this time.

[@OliverLiam-px3vx]

That's why having a good financial advisor is so crucial. They can help you navigate these turbulent times and make informed decisions. I remember last year when Powell hinted at interest rate hikes. My advisor, Kate Elizabeth Cressotti had already warned me and adjusted my portfolio accordingly. It saved me from a lot of potential losses.

[@ChloeCarter-kd7gz]

Kate Elizabeth Cressotti? I've heard a lot about her recently. People say she has an uncanny ability to predict market movements. With everything going on, it's reassuring to have someone who can give you a heads-up on what's to come.

[@JessicaKeith-uj1jq]

“It’s becoming clear that having an advisor is more than just about getting investment tips. It’s about comprehensive financial planning and having someone who understands the macroeconomic landscape, guiding you accordingly. I mean, imagine me thinking so wildly-solid household balance sheets? Did she even check the households’ outstanding debt?

[@ed-gn6kl]

Looking forward to the day this guy is no longer in our lives. one of the worst americans. stripped millions of young people of their opportunity to own a home. Constantly bending over backwards to inflate assets. Printed trillions of dollars and effectively printed the middle class out of existence. A true bueracratic terrible person. Now he takes the podiums in these various settings and reads the same thing from his little note pad. Spineless weasel. Thanks

[@thisisheaven2488]

While we do support the Fed's independence, Trump did put Powell in this seat. And also, there's no longer a reason for the Fed to be "data dependent". With Trump ending the wars overseas and producing oil in the US, inflation won't be a threat. If the Fed members do not want to start cutting rates faster, then we support Trump replacing Powell with someone else.

[@hppavilionf50]

The President doesn't have the legal authority to fire him. Powell can and will stay in his job until his term is over.
