    Fed has always, and still,is dealing with the economy in small increments. A quarter of a percent does not impact the economy much at all. Investors bitch about it, but it is no big deal. What does matter is a president who says crazy shit and fiddles with tarrifs like the economic neophyte he is. Trump is the cause of the swings in the market. His tariffs are a huge problem.

    Jesse Colombo is a great follow on Twitter regarding the Fed's bubble. His post here:

    ""The moral hazard (it's really moral hazard SQUARED) created by the Fed since late-December has made speculators extremely cocky - much cockier than ever.

    There is ZERO fear in the market at this point in time. God help us...the risks are building up tremendously...""

    This is not a personal attack but your post shows your ignorance of the market and how it works. There's a reason investors and analysts dissect every word of the Fed Chairman's statements looking for clues to future rate changes because they very much affect what the market is doing.

    Wouldn't growth in the economy translate to growth in the markets?

    Besides, you all promised it would grow the market. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin literally said “To the extent we get the tax deal done, the stock market will go up higher."

    The market growing now, well after the tax cut was passed, shows that an entire year of market growth was wasted in 2018.

    I don't think the stock market is the economy.

    You guys do, though.

    In fact, your Treasury Secretary, Mnuchin even said the Russia Tax Cut would grow the market.

    Cawacko is a fraud and a phony. He doesn't know more than what he gleans off internet message boards, and seeks to justify his bias rather than admit the truth.

    He thinks merely saying "the Fed" is the cure-all answer for his shitty defense of the Russia Tax Cut that;

    1) Failed to grow wages $4K-$9K as promised.
    2) Failed to grow the market as promised.
    3) Failed to pay for itself as promised.
    4) Failed to stop outsourcing and offshoring as promised.
    5) Failed to generate increased bonuses and benefits as promised.
    6) Failed to prevent stock buybacks as promised.

    All it did was explode the deficit -which you were screeching about for 8 years during Obama- and flatline the market. You blame that flatline on the Fed, but don't really explain how it's the Fed's fault that the Russia Tax Cut boosted after-tax earnings for two quarters, then saw those earnings come crashing back down to earth, resulting in a market sell-off and no growth at all in 2018.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would raise wages by $4k-$9k. It didn't.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would grow the market. It didn't.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would generate increased economic activity that would result in more revenues. It didn't.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would lead to bigger bonuses and more benefits. It didn't.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would end outsourcing and offshoring. It didn't.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would not result in more stock buybacks. It did.

    Nothing you've predicted or promised of your Russia Tax Cut came to pass.

    So since that was a load of horseshit, everything else you say must be horseshit too.

    The only fraud here is you claiming you went to Booth. Again, no one can go through that program and have as little understanding as you do.

    You don't know what the fuck you're talking about, dude. You haven't explained why the Fed is to blame for the poor performance of the market in 2018 because you know the Russia Tax Cut is the reason for the market not growing at all in 2018. We're only now back to where we were before the Russia Tax Cut. A whole year of growth wasted!
