Inflation's still hovering at 3%, yet they're cornered into slashing rates anyway. Why? Because everyday people are drowning financially while big tech valuations keep hitting ridiculous highs.
The disconnect is wild—consumers can barely keep up, but the market? It's on fire.
So what's next? More cuts coming, even as stocks trade near all-time peaks. The setup looks absurd, but that's exactly what's happening.
If you're sitting in cash, you're literally watching your purchasing power erode in real time. Assets are the only play that makes sense right now.

Now the Fed is really stuck; cutting rates is like gambling.

Damn, this is really awkward for the Fed—they have to slash rates hard even though inflation is still at 3%. That's hilarious.

At it again? The Fed has really screwed itself over, cutting rates like crazy but inflation is still dancing around.
It’s just ridiculous now—regular people are tightening their belts while tech stocks are skyrocketing like rockets. Who can handle this?
No matter where I put my money, I lose. If I keep it in cash, I just watch it shrink in value. It’s honestly fucking hopeless.

Cash is really just waiting to die; should have gone all in a long time ago.
Here's the trap the Fed walked into:
