The feds job isn't to save the stock market, it's to keep inflation and unemployment low. Lowering rates now does nothing for either.

TBH JPowell is sane. I respect him for not bowing down to that idiot.

A journalist asked him about a trump quote and Powell literally said “I don’t respond to comments made by politicians” and then reiterated the Feds mandate

What a boss.
