Don't lower rates. We already subsidized walstreet too much.

Can we reverse the decisions made during Woodrow Wilson's administration and fix more controls on performance management of the FED Reserve?

Powell and his people made this weakness!! Uncle Ben Bernake did the same thing hiked into recession and wouldn't lower rates until it was too late, Powell is doing the same thing by being way ahead with rates. Rates should be at 1.75% max . What a JOKE!! Why Raise if ur cutting?

vmsalama For the first time, the president is finally actually responsible for the economy. The Fed has someone to blame now. buckle your seat belts.

He means 'if the US President continues to do stupid things like tariff wars and trade agreement reversals...which will cause the economic outlook to weaken'.

I thought we had the best economy in the history of the US according to Trump.

Considering a rate cut for the “best economy in history”?

I was hoping for a cut so I could refi my home at a better rate, but I think holding is the right call. Save the ammo for when it’s needed.

Trump has had multiple bankruptcies and failed businesses until he started accepting russian help in business and obliarch money & german banks. the feds dont listen to his bully henchmen nonsense. they care about americas future
