    The #SCOTUS just ruled 6-3 that the #POTUS does NOT have the power to unilaterally impose #tariffs on foreign goods. Only #Congress has that power.

    So, why aren't the financial markets reacting??? 🤔

    If all of Drumpf's punitive tariffs are revoked (& the US has to pay back the $ collected on them previously) that should be "good" for the economy because it should reduce inflation & increase the likelihood that the #FederalReserve will reduce the #FedFundsRate which will reduce the cost of production & increase productivity & reduce unemployment.

    But the markets are mixed & basically unchanged at this time.

    This news should have caused them to skyrocket, in the same way that the 1st time that #Drumpf imposed his childish tariffs caused them to tank.

    WTF??? 🤷‍♂️

    I'm profiting but I'm still skeptical about the current state of the stock markets. 🤔

    The BIG PLAYERS continue to drive the markets higher despite the negative fundamentals & the markets just popped up another 6/10th to 1% on the "news" that the Fed is dropping the Fed Funds rate another .25% to 3.5%, even though that "news" was already anticipated & baked into the markets.

    Makes no sense to me but WTF do I know??? 🙄

    I don't expect a CRASH but I'm still waiting for the other foot to drop when the BIG PLAYERS decide that there's more $ to be made in letting the markets drop than trying to continue to push them higher despite every indicator to the contrary. 🤷‍♂️

    The Fed just announced it's going to reduce the Fed Funds Rate by 1/2% to 4 3/4 to 5%

    The #Dow just spiked up on the announcement but has since dropped back.

    The Fed's projections are that rates "could" be lowered 1/4 more point in 2024 to drop the Fed Funds Rate to 4 1/2 to 4 3/4% and 1% more during 2025 to 3 1/2 to 3 3/4%.

    So, if you're relying on interest income, now is the time to lock in those 4.5% or greater savings/CD/Treasury interest rates.
