Re: Rate Cut
the market seems to be already pricing in a fed delay or reduced rate cut the last couple of trading session through tomorrow, so it may not be that bad either waytyler3535 wrote:So if Powell hints at not cutting rates on Weds/Thurs, who will be running to the G fund???

Re: Rate Cut
That's not a big deal. After what happened with deutsche bank one would have thought we would see a real meltdown. But no....not really.
Re: Rate Cut
A rate cut would be bad for the F fund right?
Re: Rate Cut
supposedly a rate cut would revert all of the F funds gains in 2019 in a jiffytyler3535 wrote:A rate cut would be bad for the F fund right?

Re: Rate Cut
What? No--I'm pretty sure rising rates are bad for the F. Rate cuts are good news for bond funds:bloobs wrote:supposedly a rate cut would revert all of the F funds gains in 2019 in a jiffytyler3535 wrote:A rate cut would be bad for the F fund right?

What might wipe out the F is if there is no rate cut and all the priced-in anticipation is for nothing.

Falling rates are good for bond funds, but stable low rates are not.

Re: Rate Cut
A couple of questions:
What is the historical performance of the DOW/S&P500 for Rate cuts? It appears like a likely cut is coming soon and another one later this year.
Is there a good site that dissects what has happened over the course of cuts during the past?

Re: Rate Cut
Pretty sure the relevant data is the last 10 years. That’s what happens when cheap money is pumped into the economy. “Know your dope fiend.” The market will get boosted up and up while our retirement accounts are inflated into oblivion. Sounds like fun, doesn’t it?

Re: Rate Cut
Fed may get more dovish with the ongoing situation with China heating up.
