It's called a FED bailout...

It theoretically should ease the free fall to prevent an all-out crash.

adp non-farm report just came out. Much higher non-farm employment than predicted. We are screwed in term of rate cut. High unemployment and high core inflation gave jpowell easy excuse for pause rate and wait and see.

it's going to take a miracle to see rate cut now.

Layoffs due to tariffs will begin next week and continue through May. Plenty of time for the job market to tank before June
