That's it? 1% is normalized?
I didn't see that coming. I assumed the Fed would keep raising rates until the markets started to tank and then reverse course. Maybe they're just going to substitute teensy quantitative tightening for teensy rate hikes until the market tanks.
Yep , less than 2 percent is now normalized in the permanent stagnated economy . Until the next crash which she denies will ever happen .

With price inflation that low, we should expect interest rates to be low also.Originally Posted by oyarde
Yep , I really expect things to move along just as they are until the next downturn .With price inflation that low, we should expect interest rates to be low also.

If they crank interest rates up high, they will have a new downturn (at the present rate of inflation, Fed rates of three percent would be considered "high").
October...

The FAILURE of the United States Government to operate and maintain an Honest Money System , which frees the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators, is the single largest contributing factor to the World's current Economic Crisis.

Another thing that may happen in October is a debt ceiling crisis, although I fully expect congress to cave and raise it at the last minute.
I've always thought the Fed's true loyalty has been with the big banks. Maybe some of them are having trouble and have sent word to Yellen to ease up with the rate hikes.
Imagine going in to the next recession with 1% Fed Funds as your ammunition. It's like going into war with a cap gun. Negative interest rates coming soon!
Is this why the markets were happy today?

the best thing to do the day before yellen goes before congress is buy some stocks , after she finishes her questions sell , she is nothing but a wall street/big banks shill .
