  • Market rout didn't force US rate cut — but it was noted, Fed's Mester says

    From cnbc.com

    The U.S. Federal Reserve’s emergency 50 basis point rate cut on Tuesday was not driven by last week’s market capitulation, but it was taken into account, Cleveland Federal Reserve President Loretta Mester told CNBC. Speaking to CNBC’s “Squawk Box Europe” on Wednesday, Mester revealed that she supported the cut on the basis of fresh uncertainty over the medium-term outlook for the U.S. economy. “The risks around that outlook had gone up significantly. There’s still a lot of uncertainty about the course of ...

Hehehe...Repo market printing is NOT QE, just printing more Paper!

...Cutting rate on emergency, 2 weeks before appointed date, is not out of fear, though we took into consideration; it's just us FED doing these things at WILL.

Who are you trying to fool?

L. Mester says action was called for due to deterioration in mid term outlook.
Probably will cut again when the second wave of infection starts to take hold.
The Bloomberg article claiming China going back to work, just means if you did not catch it the first go round you now have a second chance.

Fed you can be sure does not want a selloff in equities as there would develop Pension funding shortfalls. Are they able to prevent a selloff as covid-19 gains traction? Probably not unless they step in and Buy like the BOJ is doing.
They do not have a mandate to support equities even if that is where the focus has been which is proven by their actions of stepping right in any time a correction started to materialize.

Give these people credit for having a loose plan. There will have been criteria laid out for a 25bp emergency intervention. However this was superceeded by a 50 bp intervention. What the trigger was they wont tell but it was hit last week....... as they say up north "There's trouble at mill."
