What do you think about Powell's decision?

Hey everyone,
I wanted to hear your thoughts on Powell's recent decision not to cut interest rates.

  • Do you think it's the right move considering the current economic conditions?
  • How do you see this impacting the markets in the short and medium term?
  • Are you expecting a rate cut later this year, or is the Fed likely to hold for longer?

Curious to hear your takes—especially from those following macro trends or managing portfolios based on rate expectations.

It's so refreshing to see a rational and mature actor in this absolute clown show.
