Jobs Slowdown Forces Fed’s Hand on Rate Cuts as White House Slams Powell’s Delayed Response
Fed Finally Blinks—Rate Cuts Incoming as Employment Stumbles
White House Turns Up Heat
Powell's hesitation draws fire from administration officials who saw this coming months ago. 'Economic indicators were flashing red while the Fed was still debating semantics,' one insider noted—classic central bank paralysis.
Markets Price In The Inevitable
Traders now betting on aggressive cuts as employment data confirms what Main Street already felt: the engine's sputtering. Powell's 'data-dependent' approach looks more like 'behind-the-curve' in hindsight.
Finance's Ironic Twist
Wall Street gets its rate cuts precisely when Main Street needs them least—because nothing says 'efficient markets' like helping portfolios before people. The Fed's finally moving—just in time to clean up a mess they helped create.
