Here we go again.
People explain away permanent deportations of immigrants and the tariff-driven job slowdown as things rate cuts could solve. I just hope the Fed isn’t really that foolish.
Ignoring a clear, upward-trending cause of inflation just to respond to an uncertain slowdown in jobs—are we really going to replay 2021, when they “looked down on inflation” and ended up with brutal rate hikes all over again?

He needs to pump it till the mid terms. After that why does he care he can call it an emergency and take extraordinary measures and get extraordinary powers. We are on fumes at this point. Surprising how resilient the economy was considering the weight of the tariffs and uncertainty.

I don’t know why anyone assumes that the BLS report will be legitimate. Maybe it will, but there are lots of questions hanging over it after recent events.
