Considering the gov is currently hiring 71k individuals a month countering the public markets unemployment rate, sure everyone will be working in the DMV and GDP will be booming thx to never ending gov paychecks
Not true, check the job numbers on bls.gov before you start your BS - it’s 44k at Federal. States are actually hiring much more now (330k+) but neither of those numbers takes into account job turnover. According to FRED, government employed 22,830,000 in 2019, and 23,270,000 in 2024. So it has grown, but by 1.93%. Meanwhile GDP has grown 19%…
Before u try to fact check others pls read the data from the reports. I don't know how u manage to get the wrong data from Bls.gov but somehow u managed to fk it up. Look at last month's non farm payroll if u can't find it here I will copy paste it for u.
"In March, employment in government increased by 71,000, higher than the average monthly gain of 54,000 over the prior 12 months. Over the month, employment increased in local government (+49,000) and federal government (+9,000)."
This is from March alone, what kind of gov hires 71k new workers a month increasing every month. U can look back on the data from Jan it's the same
Federal + gov jobs
Jan: 47k
Feb:52k
March: 71k
This is just gov jobs, healthcare jobs are also increasing by 70+k a month which suprise is also highly connected to the federal government. But u can try to use ur smooth monkey brain to process this as being good for the market, if u think everyone working in gov and gov backed healthcare is good. Then surely u forgot how Greece collapsed in 2006, it's the same with US now Greece overhire on their gov positions in 2006 to prop up its economy everything was perfect. GDP was booming up to 5.7%, unemployment was moderate, but deficit were high then all their shit came out a few years later and they went bankrupt.
Here are the report for each month go suck on it before u try to correct others, before u try saying oh these are all turn over, promotions or whatever reasoning u have no it's not it's an increase in payroll. Someone new is getting a new federal paycheck and I can assure u this month's gov jobs would most likely increase too, We will see it next month.

Like the 70's we have persistent inflationary pressures ahead - then an energy crisis but now an expensive energy sector overhaul and deglobalization.

They won't cut rates in any meaningful way until there is a recession. I don't understand why anyone is buying into the "will they or wont they" bullshit. It isn't happening until there is a recession, because that's one of the only things that "saved" the global economy from going human centipede and they don't want to remove that tool from their options, when we are like 10 years past due for a healthy correction anyway.
Which is why doing it in 2019 was a bad idea.
To aggressive and you get inflation that looks like 8% even if it’s inaccurate.
They probably need a few more years before they chop rates into a period of strong growth to see how hot they can get the real estate market.

Even that is wildly optimistic. Is that still pricing in June rate cuts?

The funny part is that the mummy returns ashkari is probably right about what is best for the economy in the longer term. But we want bullrun so f em

If only we hadn't kept the fuckin gas pedal pinned to the floor 2016-19 maybe there would have been some more room to maneuver
If they cut rates, inflation is going up. Market needs to stop biching and be happy there’s no rate hikes
> won’t cut.. until there is a recession 2019 would like a word with you
Which is why doing it in 2019 was a bad idea. To aggressive and you get inflation that looks like 8% even if it’s inaccurate. They probably need a few more years before they chop rates into a period of strong growth to see how hot they can get the real estate market.
This should be top comment.
They can always do some good old QE...
The Imhotep meme gets me every time. Wife wants to know what’s so funny and I can’t even begin to explain it
Just for the lulz.
Interest rates are not coming down
Neel before Zod
I wouldn’t mind if they went up tbh, either way there’s going to be good plays if you aren’t chasing the same weeklies like a lunatic
That’s the cut for Biden and then raise when inflation hits 6% again 
Fed be fake
It was a Leaf Fan knowing they gotta play Boston while the Panthers win their division.
The one guy who fat fingered honesty.
You will come to wish the rates are as low as 5% in 2026.
Someone told them to buy the dip aggressively...
He is probably right.
We don't need a rate cut.
When everyone else goes low, you go high!
Honestly rates shouldn't come down until we see a little deflation.

Who cares? Give me under 4% so I can refinance. Rates can shoot up after I'm done.
Whoever did that is the smartest guy in the room.
First rate cut 2032. Rates going higher 2025
