When the Fed starts lowering interest rates you can say they're improving the economy. Assuming they get it right.

Meh, the federal funds rate has averaged close to 5.5% since 1913. They may not need to tamp down rates if things stay kosher in the economy. We don’t know.

Very much depends on CPI numbers. As long as we continue to get numbers similar to March they won't lower rates. Does it matter? How much debt do we have and how much are we spending on interest to service that debt? If you think a trillion a year on interest is no big deal then go for it.

I'm thinking if we start pushing $4 here with the summer driving season then Biden is toast. Unfortunately that probably means you're looking at $5+.
