Will have to see how things pan out.....
>Yellen wants to tank Trump’s economy. She’s Obama’s girl.
Trump’s already prepped the ground for this attack. Yellen may discover that she’s getting all the blame for a depression.
In the long run....unless there is massive economic activity to off-set the debt, it’s all going to blow up. I think most rational people understand this is not going to end well.
Watch it...GWB has an MBA. He’s a business genius.
Not hard to be a business genius when daddy sets him a baseball team and a governorship and hooks him up with questionable oil deals.
Funny that that they will throw caution to the wind now that Trump is in office, but were the handmaiden of low interest rates for the past 2 decades.
End the Fed! and then go back on the gold standard.
I predicted that when President Trump was declared winner. The lefties at the Fed will try to harm the nation’s economy to make him look bad. End the damned Fed!
I bet the economy gets even better..these phd jackasses have been so wrong they are circus clowns..the fed has been so wrong it’s laughable
Trump’s economy will boom....tax cuts & business tax cuts will really get things moving.
The problem is the dummy who invested in money market instead of stocks over an 8 year term. Foolish.
Not when you are heading into retirement and the stock market is volatile. I lost a significant amount in it in the late 1990s.
I did have another stock market account, but used the last of it in late 2016 year.
The money market rate was higher than the renewal CD rates when several CDs matured.
Ah, the better to slow the economy down so it can be blamed on Trump......
Understandible. Lots of folks used up 401K to stay afloat.
I see that as a failure of retirement planners. If priority were on quick homeownership first, less folks would lose out.
we closed the first of march but my mortgage guy said “I can’t tell you what to do. but I suggest you lock in your rate” in early Feb... I think they had crept up a quarter point between the time I locked and closed.
My mortgage guy is a wise man.. He also gave me a free home warranty... That I have used the hell out of because my inspector with tons of good reviews turned out to be a goober.
Credit cards can run 29.99%... start raising rates and people who carry balances will feel the effects quickly. (most cards are tied to prime if I am not mistaken)
