I still don't know how to use this add, how them make money? How to get money from where?

Following its two-day policy meeting, the Federal Reserve announced on Wednesday that it would keep the benchmark federal funds rate unchanged, maintaining the target range at 4.25% to 4.5%. This move was widely expected, but it brings into question whether current market expectations—particularly the widely discussed three rate cuts this year—are too optimistic. From my personal standpoint, I’m neither overly optimistic nor particularly pessimistic about where rates are headed. Macro forecasting is notoriously difficult, and even central banks adjust their projections frequently in response to changing data. One concern I have is the potential inflationary pressure that could stem from tariffs under the Trump administration. Higher tariffs could push up import prices, add to cost-push inf

FOMC Keeps Fed Funds Rate Steady, Citing Rising Risks of Unemployment, Inflation The Federal Open Market Committee kept the target fed funds rate steady at its current level of at of 4.25% to 4.5%, citing rising risks of unemployment and accelerating inflation. "Uncertainty about the economic outlook has increased further," policymakers said in a statement released at the end of its two-day meeting Wednesday afternoon. "The Committee is attentive to the risks to both sides of its dual mandate and judges that the risks of higher unemployment and higher inflation have risen."  Fed Chairman Jerome Powell declined to say when policymakers can resume cutting interest rates again, noting that they will need to see evidence of what the impact from President Donald Trump's tariffs on employme

🌟🌟🌟The latest FOMC meeting concluded with a decision to keep the benchmark interest rate unchanged at 4.25% to 4.50%.  This has reinforced the Feds  wait and see approach amid ongoing uncertainties such as the impact of tariffs, mixed inflation data and muted labour market changes. With interest rates holding steady, I expect short term volatility.  However the strong earnings and resilient corporate performance have already fueled an impressive rebound. @Tiger_comments @Tiger_SG @TigerStars @CaptainTiger

FOMC Preview: Rate Cut Hopes Face a Market Test As May 2025 unfolds, all eyes are on this week’s FOMC meeting, where the big question is whether the Federal Reserve will deliver three 25-basis-point rate cuts this year. Markets currently expect the federal funds rate to hold steady at 4.25%-4.50% during this policy session, a stance bolstered by last Friday’s robust April nonfarm payroll report. The data revealed stronger-than-anticipated job growth and a stable unemployment rate, signaling economic resilience. This gives the Fed room to pause rather than rush into rate cuts. Yet, markets are still betting on 75 basis points of easing—equivalent to three cuts. Is this optimism justified, or are we in for a reality check? First, the Fed’s decision-making hinges on a delicate balance. Since

No maybe just one Or maybe a big surprise and 3 cuts who knows!!!

Options Plays Ahead of FOMC Rate Decision Today, attention is on the FOMC policy decision . The CME FedWatch Tool shows a 99% chance the Fed will keep rates at 4.25%-4.5%, following stronger-than-expected April jobs data. While no rate change is expected, markets will react to Powell’s comments on two key issues: managing inflation risks from tariffs and signs of economic slowing. Powell faces a tough choice. If he sounds too dovish (leaning toward rate cuts), it might fail to control inflation from new tariffs. If too hawkish (keeping rates high), it could hurt economic growth. Nick Timiraos, a well-known Fed reporter, notes the central bank risks causing either a recession or stubborn inflation no matter what it does. Bloomberg analysts expect Powell to focus on fighting inflation, while

3 cuts is not possible anymore. Looking at 2 cuts

The government has been engaging in significant money printing to cover large and growing deficits. This money printing is almost a mathematical certainty given the current economic situation. As a result, inflation is likely to become a persistent problem. When inflation rises, the value of the dollar typically falls because it erodes the purchasing p

The financial world held its breath as Jerome Powell stepped to the podium last Wednesday. With inflation still hovering above target and economic growth showing signs of cooling, the big question remains: Will the Fed really deliver three rate cuts this year? Despite the market's recent jitters, there's a compelling case that not only are three cuts still in play—they could be the rocket fuel that launches stocks to new all-time highs.

$S&P 500(.SPX)$  The next FOMC meeting is just over five days away, and according to CME Group data, there’s a 95% probability that rates will remain unchanged. The key question now is: will Trump’s pressure or Powell’s caution ultimately shape the Fed's course? If there’s no cut this time, the next opportunity won’t come until June 18—unless deteriorating conditions force an emergency move. Despite eight consecutive days of gains in the market, the rally feels increasingly disconnected from fundamentals. I can’t quite explain the optimism, especially with more negative headlines likely in the coming month than positive ones. Most of the good news already seems priced in, leaving limited upside unless something u

The US economy just flashed a warning sign - GDP contracted 0.3% last quarter. For investors, this raises the billion-dollar question: Is this the start of something ugly, or just a temporary blip in America's economic recovery? Let's cut through the noise and examine what's really happening under the hood. Breaking Down the GDP Drop: Not All Contractions Are Equal At first glance, negative GDP growth sends chills down any investor's spine. But before hitting the panic button, we need to understand what's driving this decline: Trade Imbalance Drag: Net exports subtracted a whopping 3.2% from GDP as imports surged. This reflects strong US consumer demand rather than domestic weakness Inventory Adjustment: Businesses drew down stockpiles after aggressive 2021 restocking. This accounted for
