Rate Hike and Market Reaction1:45 – 3:58

M

Mr. KHost

1:45

The Fed last Wednesday raised interest rates a quarter of a percent from 3.75 to 4%.

M

Mr. KHost

1:51

This was done in a stave off inflation, which is currently at 3.4% and well short of the Fed's goal of 2%.

M

Mr. KHost

2:00

It appears that the Fed is dead set at trying to get inflation down to 2%, raising the possibility of future rate hikes.

M

Mr. KHost

2:08

This comes much to the chagrin of our commander-in-chief, the Donald, who would like interest rates down to the ground.

M

Mr. KHost

2:17

C-squared, your thoughts on the rate hike, which was expected from all accounts?

C

2:23

Yeah, expected from all accounts.

C

2:26

And I was... thinking that it would do more damage to the markets.

M

Mr. KHost

2:34

Yeah, it didn't really.

C

2:38

I'm shocked.

C

2:39

Now maybe we are going to see something in the near future.

C

2:45

We are hitting our head right now.

C

2:48

It's either going to blow through and have a blow-off pop like S&P 800 or it's about ready to turn around and head to the other direction.

M

Mr. KHost

3:00

Yes, yes.

M

Mr. KHost

3:02

The broad markets since the Wednesday change have been a bit mixed.

M

Mr. KHost

3:08

SPY was down on Wednesday right after the change, up on Thursday, down slightly on Friday.

M

Mr. KHost

3:15

Let's see, a big Monday today about even.

M

Mr. KHost

3:19

But tech was good.

M

Mr. KHost

3:21

And tech's been doing quite well since the rate

C

3:25

change.

C

3:28

Talk about a blow-off time.

C

3:33

on Monday for the NASDAQ, almost 3% in one day.

M

Mr. KHost

3:37

Yeah, yeah.

M

Mr. KHost

3:40

And Meta went through the roof.

M

Mr. KHost

3:41

Imagine being

C

3:42

along that.
