Why did the Fed cut rates a half if T assures us that everything is fine with CV?

Yep keep printing that money

Yeah, they're going to.

They've been doing it for decades. No one is interested in reversing course. It's not politically feasible.

Conservatives (want low taxes) + Socialists (want to provide free everything) = Printing

It frightens me a bit... I would feel much better if they cut a quarter "as a safety precaution."

This cut makes me feel like there's a storm on the horizon.

My other theory is based on Tufte's book... that T parlayed the CV into a big rate cut to stoke the economy for the election. "It's the economy, stupid."

Who exactly is "they" that own 80% of the US ETFs?

Fed

 

[Sig]

Fed

So they own 1 share of 80% of US ETFs? Because they sure as hell don't own 80% of any other measure of US ETFs. You can see what the FED holdings are right on their website, care to point out the 80% of ETFs? Oh, right, they're hiding that just behind your tinfoil hat.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist. You'd have to be well experienced to find out that we don't have any free enterprise, rather, privatized central banks control and artificially inflate the markets. As they control and markup each security, it is clear they are printing money. Countless amounts of it.

Let's be crystal clear here. You made a very specific and entirely bullshit claim that the Fed owns 80% of ETFs. I called BS on the bullshit and clearly you've got no credible response to back that assertion that you or some other conspiracy theorist pulled out their ass. At this point anything other than "perhaps I was exaggerating a bit" simply makes you appear even less credible and more of a card carrying member of the tinfoil hat club than you already did.

if this coats your emotions, "perhaps I was exaggerating a bit"

More billions, this time from China

Isnt it wildly interesting that we have diseases and cancers that kill daily and other viral implications and addictions that never see any kind of money to fight it and if they do its tiny amounts or amounts that have to be raised by donations but here we have a virus that's not even a few months old receiving hundreds of billions in handouts to fight it....its soooooooo odd that research around the world is spending each second right now to eliminate a virus that's been here for months and we have diseases and cancers that have been here for hundreds of years and no cures yet......
Really is fascinating to see this unfold and see how money is allocated to fight one disease and not another.

Before you get too worried about it economic growth has been falling a bit for a while so they were going to do it anyway, the coronavirus is just another reason to do it. I wrote a letter to the President of America earlier this year with some suggestions of how to stimulate economic growth linked below.
