i realize the point is to cut rates for cheaper money for capitalists but wouldn't you want to hold rates where they currently are if inflation is returning to "normal" so theres rates to cut if theres a recession

This is true. The BMI thing was iirc invented in the 1900s and has a little bit of race science behind it

Counterpoint: Bitcoin is a black hole that can suck up even a supernova of quantitative easing. If it gets hooked up to the money hose it defeats it, breaking everything. Mark my words it is bailout proof. Putting more money in is either just as bad as everything else or worse if the people bailed out run off with that money too.

Macron gave some sort of interview or speech today where he said he wanted to further "liberalize" the economy and do fascism.

You realize y'all have been saying this for well over a year right? That recession is right around the corner (or, on the more unhinged side, that we are actually in one but the government is lying)?

Is the goal here to continue saying it until you are eventually proven right, and then smugly go "heh, I told you"?

a dozen rate hikes and we're still back at free-money levels last seen in 2021 before a single rate hike happened



fed reserve policy error seems almost inevitable at this point. they'll start cutting rates because the Vibecession is Great, things will start going haywire, they'll panic hike, and the economy explodes as we experience a brutal second wave of inflation

I don't expect a single one of you to believe me. after all, 2022 was a blip. stonk does not go down. stonk always goes up. nothing bad can ever happen. go full port in NVDA right the gently caress now.

SKULL.GIF posted:

we had a whole full year (2022) of the stonk market (rich people's feelings) going down like 8% total and everyone was so loving catastrophized by it that they piled into the investment opportunity of a lifetime, literally ripping out their eyeballs and veins so they could buy as much NVDA as humanly possible because Stonk. Does. Not. Go. Down.

all of these moronic slop hoggs are gonna chortle wetly at you and tell you "why would you doubt stonk?" as they put 99.9% leverage into AI

I have noticed smaller towns in my area have been passing local ordinances against how many rental properties you can own. Lot of the locals were getting pissed their towns were being turned into massive Airbnb locations. Wonder if housing will just have to be fixed by local regs that trickle up to the state level over time.
