I don't really see why you mention Fed rate and compare it to bond yields Fed rate is higher for quite a long time and it wasn't big concern till now and inverted curve is when short term bonds pay more than long term and it's not inverted now

that's nice your not representing FED with you we would already had 0% interest rate and 100% inflation

S&P + 1% in last 30 minutes

You're so wrong and pathetic Just 2 weeks ago market had it record highs, bonds were at 5.25 and oil was at record highs Has inflation slowed in 2 weeks? Or Fed should cut and rise every 2 weeks? Or should it just give avay money for free who was not lucky at stock market? Current deep in...

30% rise in a year and then 5% down begging for a rate cut? everyone will put his money to Euro, Pound etc if rate cut happens. Fed is out of control. Rates must be around 10% now with all inflation around If they cut it's over for US

If Fed doesn't care about $ why would they care about stock market? it still 25% higher than a year ago, that was a bubble type behavior - so why it can't be allowed to deflate to 1200-1300 range? People sold dollars today like crazy - there are a lot of dollars if $ still can go down...

Yes, you're right - the solution for this crisis is not rate cuts but recession to reduce demand. Economy can't be driven by consumption anymore as all consumption is financed by new debt So demand must be cut by rate rises - it will deflate all commodity bubbles, make consumer responsible...
