If I would have to guess, I would guess the elite think that humanoid robots can/will fill in the gap of the workforce shrinking along with debt still needing to grow exponentially. I'd bet though ha, they become too effective, the robots. And ...

Spoiler alert: They can't hike. If they do, it will break the system. Interest on the national debt is bigger than military spending. Although 2nd spoiler alert, this cut cycle and the boomers all retiring and us having a really small workforce... ...

What is wrong, it is still a positive real rate? Money is not supposed to hold value, it is supposed to be a medium for transactions.: those who control the system WANT it to be low and to be this way, so that the money will keep moving as quickly ...

The other thing that I think is going on here: Slightly nuts but... I think they want to get AI into robots and get that all to take over a lot of the work that the boomers can no longer do, that boomers are leaving to younger and smaller ...

Yeah, you are right. the thing we are about to see I think is the US diverges into corporate interests and the public. Well, we have probably already seen it. But basically rates lower, I'd bet inflation is back up but then under-reported. And ...

This is pro soft dollar (/rate cuts): image FinancialJuice is also a great site, in addition to forexfactory here. *At first I was confused with why the dollar appeared to be weakening a bit now, but I think this is it basically.

It is undecisive because there is more major US news in about 15 minutes

Yeah that seems to have been how it is since 2008/2009: People just realized the actual real growth is super super crap, and prices move just on FED and regulatory more than just actual real stuff. So BAD NEWS = money spigot = UP basically ha.

I think longer term, we end up like Europe here, where all rates are negative. I think the "inflation" is due to competition with china causing supply chain problems, And war of Russia. I don't think raising rates will help there at all either. And ...

Interesting... you know its the 2020s, when the only thing saving us from great depression is war.

Breaking news: the numbers do and have never made any sense (basically)...

Think about this though... the EUR and the main chief of that bank "spoke the EUR tighter" yesterday... ha that kind of stuff makes you wonder if they knew this all was coming... EUR would want to buy time with their currency higher, since I suspect ...

LOL - the expected vs. actuals looks terrible on this one... looks like forecasters capitulated to the terrible numbers at exactly the wrong time... they were 1000% wrong, at least so far it looks to me. So if the market believed this... expect ...

"Backward roll"... ha all I can picture is this for some reason:

This is inevitable. It is because of the fact that the age demographics are crappy for the West/US... it is worse in China, etc... but yeah. Basically in order for the benefits of the larger "aging out" population to be paid, and all the municipals ...

Markets now... are not what they used to be. They are and will be all fake, depend more on policy makers and laws now than they did in the distant past. The age demographics of all but say Africa are bad, and the current "neverending growth" market ...

If your grandmother really has a money sock.. she will LOVE no inflation policies hehe

They want to avoid the "Japan problem": url *8-11 minutes explains it well. Basic idea though is they would rather have inflation, as long as it's not something WACKY like 10%... than what Japan saw. Because not having any inflation, still having ...

Not gonna happen... they let it all go for too long. The entire US would crash globally if they don't continue the charade. IE... the only thing that can annd will be done is this, what do you think?: So lots and lots and lots of DEBT is a problem ...
