    Is this a good thing?

    Mortage rates improve, auto loan rates improve, debt interest rate goes down and the overall job market should become more robust.

    The only blatant negative are high interest saving accounts losing their rates.

    House prices may go up with this, but with mortgage rates going down it kind evens out

    It is going to give the economy more juice because businesses will start taking out more money, it lessens the chance of a recession, and it makes it easier for people to get mortgages (because the interest rate is lower)

    I had a 6.5% savings account I was getting tons of interest from the last year from my credit union

    was paying my student loans with my HYSA with the interest it earns every month

    will still have it taken out of that account of course, but now with new rates my loan will be easily more than the interest

    They know this is good electoral news for Kamala/the Dems lol

  • Sep 18, 2024

    This is not something that is automatically going to make her rise in the polls btw

    It’s more of a long game thing. There’s only less than two months left so it may not even have time to have a huge effect, but over the next 2 months it will slowly but surely lead to more jobs and people getting homes, so it will slowly have a net positive effect on the incumbent parties electoral outcome

    Another recession is inevitable, it’s a matter of how long it can be forestalled

    In any case, recessions are dependent on what goes on in the productive sectors of the economy. Right now, that’s not looking so rosy. Notice how nearly all the job gains from last month are in unproductive service sector, while the major productive sectors are bleeding jobs

    Additionally, the manufacturing PMI has been below 50 for the last two months (and august had to be revised down from initial reports). This indicates the productive sectors are contracting, which is a strong sign of rocky times ahead

    And the Sahm rule has been triggered, which has shown itself to be a reliable predictor of impending recessions.

    The economy is much more than the stock market. Using this as a barometer for the health of the economy is a surefire way to get caught with one’s pants down. Capital often flees to speculative assets when the rate of profit isn’t adequate in the productive sectors. Even mainstream research has acknowledged that the stock market is not really correlated with the health of the economy, and that there may even be a negative correlation (there is)

    Politics, lol. Trump is anti-union but are the workers really part of an organization formed by workers' voices if they don't endorse who the majority want?
