@amitisinvesting Cutting rates merely to refinance our debt at a lower rate just feels like flawed economic policy & mkt manipulation. Yes, refinancing our maturing debt at 5% is terrible lol, but when the market is this resilient and we continue to see earnings growth, a cut seems inflationary
@amitisinvesting This is a daily conundrum for me. Past experience + education tells me to stay invested, but the U.S. refinancing $7T at 5.0% tells me there has to be consequences.
Today’s 30-year treasury auction saw the lowest levels of foreign participation since 2019. Treasury offered 4.819% which was about 80 BPs higher than at pre-auction deadline. The inflationary negative feedback loop continues. #higherforlonger
Been looking into the “Lost Decade” recently which occurred during 2000-2010. While margins are higher these days, the exponential growth in the S&P over the past 15 years is undeniable. With Tech valuations being sky high. Is another Lost Decade out of the question? 
@stoolpresidente Because both stocks and crypto are “risk on” assets. When interest rates are low, and investors have a positive outlook on the economy, people make riskier investments. When interest rates are high, and/or economic outlook is poor, investors look for safer assets
@MAGAVoice Honestly, terrible policy if you want to increase productivity. Why would I want to produce more and make less? Why would I strive to make over $150k if my after tax income would be less than someone who makes $145k? Terrible move for economic growth, make capitalism great again
