Fed Chair Jerome Powell: Economic outlook uncertain, we remain highly attentive to inflation risks

Fed Chair Jerome Powell delivers remarks following the Federal Reserve's two-day policy meeting on Wednesday.

U.S. t bills are the same as junk bonds. In order to get buyers you need to keep raising yields as the national debt keeps going higher. things are not improving.

[@Muller_Andr]

I'm looking at high-yield dividend stocks. Selling 200k worth of equities is stupid without reinvesting it. I might turn to cash soon if I don't invest it. Any particulars? (Buying bonds or CDs is not for me)

[@Jennapeters144]

Don't get any such ideas. If I were you, I would bother less and buy gold and bitcoin. There are more institutional investors in long bonds than individuals and they are all relinquishing their long term holdings.

[@AadhilaEesha]

I agree, while higher interest rates increase bond yields, they also hurt long-term bondholders who can't wait for their bonds to mature. IMO You are better off for next 5 years by buying the dip now.

[@simone_maya]

I am new to alternate investing, bonds were sold off, now this pump and dump scheme by the fed. What other alternatives have you tried that bring you passive income?

[@Jennapeters144]

The decision on when to pick an Adviser is a very personal one. I take guidance from ‘Monica Mary Strigle‘ to meet my growth goals and avoid mistakes, she's well-qualified and her page can be easily found on the net.

[@BrewerVera]

Our economy is like a flailing fish, fighting for its life. The normal state of the U.S. economy is actually very bad. Because of this it goes into convulsive spasms fighting to grow any way it can out of desperation. Tricks, gimmicks, rule changes try to stimulate the economy and prevent it from falling but they only bring temporary relief to people since, when you factor in inflation we are declining.

[@FaithAndrada-xo9ou]

People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.

[@AndersonFair-cy2bb]

Inflation is gradually going to become part of us and due to that fact any money you keep in cash or in a low-interest account declines in value each year. Investing is the only way to make your money grow and unless you have an exceptionally high income, investing is the only way most people will ever have enough money to retire.

This is why I entrusted a fiduciary with my investmnt decisions. Many underestimate advisors until emotions lead to losses. My advisor crafted a tailored strategy aligning with my long-term goals, guiding entry and exit points for the equities I focus on. This has grown my portfolio to over $850k. My personal best so far

[@jose2212-]

Inflation hasnt gone down at all

[@WeekiWacheeMax]

They don't try to get inflation to go down. they only want the rate it's increasing to come down. If inflation goes down people stop spending because what they want to buy will cost less next month and consumers spending less is what causes recessions and depressions.

[@carlelanal1574]

Only when try to cut rate but when they send billions to isreal and ukrain there is no inflation , thats why iam democrat voting for trump

[@sten260]

@@WeekiWacheeMax not that simple, sometimes deflation can increase spending because generally if people can afford more things they buy more things. If you have high inflation then opposite happens, things get too expensive ,people cant afford things, demand goes down, recession happens.

Since 2019 before the pandemic, housing is up over 40%, gas is up almost 50%, and most food products are even higher. Celebrating the "victory" right now... Goebbels was also touting the great "successes" Germany was making in 1944 in Italy and in the Battle of the Bulge

[@sakarikaristo4976]

Proper housing and gas weights in consumption baskets are hard to pin down because of variance in prices. Consumer goods have less variance which might explain their weight in consumption basket.

[@sakarikaristo4976]

And the Fed can’t do much about current level of prices without introducing recession that should result in low inflation and possibly deflation.

[@aarone9000]

And who is it that owns the oil? Republicans! Get it?

[@GarrettKoval]

If I was a betting man, I’m expecting more rate increases in the next 12 months.. Dropping rates right now would just increase inflation.

[@AntonioPerez-gv5wq]

they are hoping that inflation goes down a bit more without them having to increase interest any more at least for now another increment on the interest rate can send the economy into recesion and make things even worse. inflation is stabilizing, they have to be very careful, another side of the story is that this all BS and political moves by the goverment that is in control, making people lives a living hell, keeping everybody poor while they fill up their pockets and bank accounts maybe 1 or 2 more increases will finally will be able to tame the best but it has to be done at the right time, then after that it will be all the opposite, interest ratecuts depending on how things are going, meanwhile the president keeps sending money to promote and support war and conflicts around the world, that money can be use to lower inflation at the end they are only trying to solve a problem that they themselves created, is just freaking hillarious and ironic

[@carlelanal1574]

Sending billions to isreal and ukrain doesnt increase inflation??😮😮😮

[@GarrettKoval]

A lot of things increase inflating. Printing money is one thing. On-shoring manufacturing instead of letting lower cost countries do it. A lot of things are aiming us towards stagflation. Point being lowering interest rates will not help the cause.

[@hapalaj]

@@GarrettKoval It's more complicated. Inflation is caused by increased money supply. This can have multiple sources, one being (excessive) bank lending - in that case higher rates help because they slow the lending. However, currently the source of extra money is the government overspending (and thus printing more money). Higher rates can be counterproductive in this case when the government is deep in debt. As this means they have to print even more money and pay more on interest to the bond holders (either people or companies) who have more money to spend and drive inflation higher.

They need to run up interest rates to an all-time high and hold that position until they stomp out inflation! lowing interest rates are just gonna keep inflation around. We’ve got to run the interest rates up higher and hold to that for another two years to completely stomp it out. It’s painful but we need to remind the federal government that they need to get on a budget and stay on it.
