Quite, I agree. He and the world are complex bodies and people/critics/observers/supporters or opponents seek always to bring everything down to one right or wrong, one problem and one solution. Currently, I am listening to a radio phone-in and ...
Hamas Gaza Chief: We Declare An End To The War Today, Start Of Permanent Ceasefire
- DaJoWaBa commented Oct 10, 2025
Pretty much my thoughts. Although his personal motive for a Nobel Peace Prize just feels wrong, I couldn't care less if it means there's genuine peace. It's a shame that it's taken another 9 months or so to get back close to what was on the table at ...
Hamas Gaza Chief: We Declare An End To The War Today, Start Of Permanent Ceasefire
- DaJoWaBa commented Oct 2, 2025
I'd agree with most of that but Keynes' theories get blamed lazily and unjustly for uncontrolled behaviour. Keynes wanted government investment and debt to step in ONLY when there was proven lack of demand (in a recession basically) but to step ...
Trump: I really believe that Jerome “Too Late” Powell is an obstructionist!
- DaJoWaBa commented Oct 1, 2025
It shouldn't ideally but we live in uncertain times and it's a response to an outlook that offers a little more certainty for a little longer(?). It slightly reduces the prospect of another hell-bent POTUS puppet being installed in the short-term, ...

Whilst earnings continue to exceed the RoI, without job losses biting, the consumer is happy enough. So, maybe, they'll hold. It all rather depends on how and when any tariffs on any actual new essentials inventory feed through.

Suggested Stagflation a while back but these 2 simultaneous datapoints would appear to nod to that. Trickier for the FED to balance it their decision.

Heavy dose of sarcasm?
On a different angle, the quote in the text: "More specifically, Bessent brushed off a Goldman Sachs report from August that found 86% of the tariff revenue collected so far has been paid by U.S. businesses and ...Bessent dismisses costs of tariffs, but says U.S. would have to give huge refunds if they're...

Polar opposite. FED has a dual mandate: employment and inflation. Trump stated "no inflation" and healthy economy. Powell stated inflation likely increasing but wary of the employment data recently. Trumps belief mantra vs stats-man Powell. Right ...

"Technical Difficulties" can mean many things and my first question is, does this mean we can't expect the information to be released at the scheduled time?

Go figure: one datapoint down, next one up, next one down, next one up, ad infinitum. Put the politics aside, the FED aren't exactly getting much help to decide on a direction. Where's the neutral rate for this mashing of datapoints (rhetorical Q!)?

In whatever instrument, you must have had your PSL close, which is fine. You should be very wary of being in the market during the walk-in to any scheduled news flagged red anyway.

Now we're probably seeing the start of the initial tariffs' consequences on Import and Input prices. Someone in BLS will feel the heat, no doubt, in order for the Administration to deflect the real cause. Powell, and the committee, now has the ...
