they won't hike so they can inflate your money to nothing while they take it all......

25bps cut. Cost are going up so you don't need higher interest to slow the economy down. Cutting rates helps everyone in credit card debt. Helps people afford a house with out crashing the housing market. Lower interest rate good for tech stocks and Capex spending in the USA. The USA should be at a 25-50bps fed funds rate. Most of the western world is below 250bps. No lower rates do not increase inflation higher lending cost increase inflation while destroying wages and jobs.

completely meaningless what they do. the main thing is to create some kind of circus atmosphere to somehow push stocks higher, just like 95% of everything the Fed does. occasionally the Fed chair says something the market doesn't like, in which the media serves up a softball question instructing a reversal of what was originally said. that's always the fail-safe when a Fed head loses track of what's happening.

The Fed will increase rates to offset the inflationary rise in gas prices and the subsequent rise at the grocery store. They want to discourage people from borrowing money. Plus there is also the $38T national debt and tech layoffs. Hate to be pessimistic, but those are my reasons.
