@Tonymanero1960, I like your comment, speaking the time zone difference, my very first trip taking jet plane from San Fransico, CA. to Cint., Ohio I left at 11 A. M. got to my sister house in Ohio had dinner with her and her family it was 1984 year I thought that was wild ate breakfast in CA. state in same day eat dinner in the east state. I was born and raised in California I still live in California. It is very beautiful state. Because I bought my house in 1985 paid it off in 2007 year I have no house payments. just cost of living that it but it is low for me I stay single no children, and I work for about 39 years of my adult lifetime been retired for 10 years now. so, life is great for me in CA. state all about perfect decisions timing is what I seen in my own life. Enjoy your life.
Thanks Mike. Could not agree with you more. I for one am truly sensing 2008 vibes. I went my local Lowes today, here in Central PA, and it was nearly deserted. People simply are not spending money on anything other than their bills and groceries. Not much else.
If you have no money, any federal funds rate cuts are meaningless. All it does is make people with money 💰 make more money 💰. All the rest will suffer this .5 rate cut with higher inflation.
Kinda interesting how you are being attacked in the responses for stating a truth. An interesting thing to note election-wise in all this is how all the people supporting the incumbent administration for election are all wealthy people who don't fill their own tanks or buy their own food. The recent Oprah interview with Kamala and the Swift endorsement are all shining a light on the disconnect of the current people in the White House from the average person. The middle class is disappearing quickly.
So low-income individuals do pay taxes in the most insidious way. Meanwhile, politicians brag about how you don't have to pay taxes thanks to them! Paper money is for the rich to stay that way.
They have to cut and allot becasue we in the USA have a crazy high trade deficit, every day people in America buy goods made in China, Europe, Vietnam, Mexico even Canada from all over the world and that money goes abroad, it gets sucked out of the USA, BOOM it's gone. So we have to create MORE money and debt just to keep a balance of liquidity. This is why we can have big government debts and nothing happens, we could probably have 500% debt to GDP and life moves on. We just dump it all on the world, but the world wants to make more goods then their local population can buy so they sell it to us. It's just the way it is.
The rate cut does not help the middle class leave along the poor people, it only helps the very wealthy the ones that have the money and economic capacity to borrow. People in general would have benefitted with 3% increase
IMHO, besides Michael, Doomers News Network (Melody Wright, Travis from Real Estate Mindset, and Jack), and Nobody Special Finance (Jack's morning updates) are also good sources of objective financial info.

I agree that gold is only good if you can trade for $$$. If the US goes "Valenzuela" then the world is pretty much f-ed. Buying spam, MREs and ammo will be the more valuable in a post-apocalyptic world. You can't eat gold and makes for a crappy shield. And where can you sell gold to get a fair value? Only way is to buy it thru brokers (who takes cuts) or if you're extremely rich and have the means to sell to central banks. Where are you as a normal person going to sell your Costco 1oz bars and get anything close to fair...pawn shop or some guy you met on FB markets behind a Walmart?
What good is gold if you don't have a government. If the government collapses gold is worthless. Food , gas, water, guns and bullets things you need to survive with would be more precious than gold . Things you could barter with .
This the third gas price increase in four years. It’s insane. They have raised vehicle registration fees as well. PG&E is raising prices several times a year! Cost of home, car and pet insurance has gone up as well.

Hang on tight!
I know gold is supposed to be such a magic hedge against inflation and recession but I just have trouble putting any faith in it. It's a shiny rare metal wirh limited applications and just like fiat currency it's value is whatever you want to believe it is. I wish the billionaires hadn't bought up all the farmland as that is one of the true valuable assets in any economic time. Food production is never going to be worthless.
I bought a lot of gold in the early 2000's in the low $400's. In 2010 I needed some cash and had to go to a couple of different dealers before I could sell some in the mid $1900's. I still hold some but nowhere near what I used to. My motto now is food, ammo and booze. You'll always be able to get money out of those items.
All these issues stem from an economy grappling with uncertainties, including housing problems, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and the aftermath of the pandemic, leading to instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions demand urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.
With the US dollar losing value to inflation and other currencies gaining traction, uncertainty looms. Yet, many still trust in the Dollar's perceived safety. Worried about my $420,000 retirement savings losing value, I seek alternative security for my money
Right, the role of advisors an only be overlooked but not denied. I got financially free at the age of 49 with over $1.6m in investment account alone. I was shocked that I made more money with money than with hard work, even my CEO income. Earning ''return on investment'' makes me more happy. (But I still enjoy working)
congrats! mind sharing details of your advisor please? truly appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress, thus the search for a reputable advisor
curiously inputted Jessica Lee Horst on the web, spotted her consulting page and was able to schedule a call session, no sweat. Ive seen commentaries about advisors but not one looks this phenomenal
There was a young gothic guy who lives somewhere around here and I would often see him at the food court of our local mall. This guy was the whole nine yards and held sway over the teenager goth crowd. Now my wife tells me he has become a financial adviser for Edward Jones, ffs. I can die now, for I have seen it all. The top has to be in, never mind interest rates. I’m getting gothic style financial advice.
The economy is Bad! You are correct regarding the 50 basis points and Jerome Powell. IBM just let 8000 workers go. The auto industry is in Big trouble! Banking has closed a Record number of locations in 2024. Restaurants are in Big trouble and closing one after another. Some experts are says the Stock Market will soon loose up to 70%!
I live in the Southwestern corner of Pennsylvania, very close to the West Virginia State line.(Bout 20 minutes) I go there once a week to fill up my wife's car, but two carton's of smokes & a 30 pack of Beer. Total savings?... $120.00. That's about an hour round trip to save a buck-twenty. Or, as I tell people who mock that "would you work for $120..00 per hr.?" Yep-yep-yep. Gas there is on average $.40-$.65 per gallon cheaper, yesterday @$2.89per gal. When we had enough and left California over five years ago, it was $5.19 per gallon, which made me think moving across the the whole country was going to be very expensive on our calculations for fill-up's for the largest moving truck we could rent with a trailer and our Expedition on it. Gratefully, it wasn't as bad as we budgeted for, since every other state was at least $2 cheaper per gallon, than Cali. Arriving in Pennsylvania, and having to refill the tank to full when turning it back into Penske, gas was only $2.98. whew, saved about half the cost on gas.
California to Pennsylvania is odd. They have nothing in common. Usually people leaving California stay in the West somewhere. Most people would not want a cold climate like Pennsylvania.
Elections are always monitored. There's counts and recounts, audits, court cases, judges. The problem here is you don't like the result. Big difference
89 democrats and 4 Republicans makes up the federal reserve economist. That tells you that they don't want this crash to happen under this administration
The income from interest rate drop while property tax and maintanance cost stay too high as long as the home value is too high. Homeownership become a burden for fix income earner.
Stability is a result of our economy's struggles with uncertainty, housing issues, foreclosures, global volatility, and the pandemic's consequences. To restore stability and promote growth, all sectors must respond quickly to concerns about growing inflation, slow growth, and trade disruptions.
Consider hiring financial advisors, estate planners or tax experts. They can provide specialized knowledge and help you navigate complex financial decisions.
Having an investment advisor is currently the best way to approach the stock market. I was going alone, but it wasn't working. I've been working with an advisor for a while now, and last year, I achieved over 85% capital growth minus dividends
This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation
Jessica Lee Horst is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
You're correct however it isn't a short term investment. It's a hedge against the dollar fiat collapse. The amount required to pay just the interest is growing exponentially. This is a ponzi scheme that is nearing it's end. The Great Reset is the collapse of the world fiat ponzi currencies and the introduction of a new currency/currencies. These new currencies might be initially gold based as most fiat currencies like to dollar once were. BTW, he fiat dollar just reached a new low against gold.
I moved my 401k to a low risk account a year ago when youtube said the sky will fall then. Could've gained a lot of ground on it if I wouldve just left it alone... but maybe I was just ahead of the curve :p
There is a misunderstanding. The FED isn’t lowering interest rates by their definition they are trying to get rates back to neutral. What the FED considers cutting rates is any rate below neutral so anything below 3%
We’re is Aftermath of pandemic 😷 Economic wise Everything looks normal even everything is all time high but it’s not Now you gonna see the aftermath Of the pandemic next 12 months just like 1929 history repeats it self!

If there is a hard landing/recession as hinted by the large rate cut, then the 10 year treasury yield will most likely be lower than it is now, far below the predicted 4%.
Gold is insurance. It is not an investment. With the stroke of a pen, the gov you lov could outlaw your physical tomorrow like they did in 1933. If you own gold, make sure it is real US coins from the mint, not bullion or it's vaulted outside the USA.
I disagree with the sentiment that gold is money and bitcoin is not. Both of them are a store of value, and neither of them are money in the traditional sense of currency.
No you are correct. It is one of the 16 black swans I am watching. The issues is still very much there... just no one is talking about it. But with contraction, unemployment going up not down. CRE will go down even further. Which means there is going to be a massive collateral crisis in just that alone... it will not stay contained.. it will move elsewhere. When it does. It's game over. But I don't think that is what starts us on the crash. I think that is banks going under again.

buy gold, it's a non inflationary asset.
@@lazydayB2B can’t the government seize your gold if they want? That’s one thing that’s held me back.
@@LizaTresenot if it’s hidden and you have them in your physical possession
Cash is king? Hard to find places to invest it to avoid inflation right now.
@@LizaTrese yes they can another reason I'm not buying any gold as well
I know gold is supposed to be such a magic hedge against inflation and recession but I just have trouble putting any faith in it. It's a shiny rare metal wirh limited applications and just like fiat currency it's value is whatever you want to believe it is. I wish the billionaires hadn't bought up all the farmland as that is one of the true valuable assets in any economic time. Food production is never going to be worthless.
I bought a lot of gold in the early 2000's in the low $400's. In 2010 I needed some cash and had to go to a couple of different dealers before I could sell some in the mid $1900's. I still hold some but nowhere near what I used to. My motto now is food, ammo and booze. You'll always be able to get money out of those items.
You should go and walk around the poverty stricken neighborhoods like one of them and explain what can happen when the economy tanks.
All these issues stem from an economy grappling with uncertainties, including housing problems, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and the aftermath of the pandemic, leading to instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions demand urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.
With the US dollar losing value to inflation and other currencies gaining traction, uncertainty looms. Yet, many still trust in the Dollar's perceived safety. Worried about my $420,000 retirement savings losing value, I seek alternative security for my money
Right, the role of advisors an only be overlooked but not denied. I got financially free at the age of 49 with over $1.6m in investment account alone. I was shocked that I made more money with money than with hard work, even my CEO income. Earning ''return on investment'' makes me more happy. (But I still enjoy working)
congrats! mind sharing details of your advisor please? truly appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress, thus the search for a reputable advisor
Jessica Lee Horst is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with and set up an appointment.
curiously inputted Jessica Lee Horst on the web, spotted her consulting page and was able to schedule a call session, no sweat. Ive seen commentaries about advisors but not one looks this phenomenal
I bought gas in TX today for $2.49. It is less than $3.00 everywhere.
Lol, the FED never says we’re going into a recession….. until we’re already in a recession
Florida condos are a no go !
All Florida real estate is a no go. They're backward. They're poorly prepared. They're on a sinking ship.
There was a young gothic guy who lives somewhere around here and I would often see him at the food court of our local mall. This guy was the whole nine yards and held sway over the teenager goth crowd. Now my wife tells me he has become a financial adviser for Edward Jones, ffs. I can die now, for I have seen it all. The top has to be in, never mind interest rates. I’m getting gothic style financial advice.
Interest rates are not high, they are normal by historic standards.
The economy is Bad! You are correct regarding the 50 basis points and Jerome Powell. IBM just let 8000 workers go. The auto industry is in Big trouble! Banking has closed a Record number of locations in 2024. Restaurants are in Big trouble and closing one after another. Some experts are says the Stock Market will soon loose up to 70%!
You have been a 💯 percent correct so far, congratulations.
Jerome Powell's legacy will be one gigantic meme 🙃
a meme of doing that impossible and achieving a soft landing
You mean the "The printer goes brrrrrrrrrr?"
He isnt an ECONOMIST!!
How come you're not viral yet?!
I live in the Southwestern corner of Pennsylvania, very close to the West Virginia State line.(Bout 20 minutes) I go there once a week to fill up my wife's car, but two carton's of smokes & a 30 pack of Beer. Total savings?... $120.00. That's about an hour round trip to save a buck-twenty. Or, as I tell people who mock that "would you work for $120..00 per hr.?" Yep-yep-yep. Gas there is on average $.40-$.65 per gallon cheaper, yesterday @$2.89per gal. When we had enough and left California over five years ago, it was $5.19 per gallon, which made me think moving across the the whole country was going to be very expensive on our calculations for fill-up's for the largest moving truck we could rent with a trailer and our Expedition on it. Gratefully, it wasn't as bad as we budgeted for, since every other state was at least $2 cheaper per gallon, than Cali. Arriving in Pennsylvania, and having to refill the tank to full when turning it back into Penske, gas was only $2.98. whew, saved about half the cost on gas.
California to Pennsylvania is odd. They have nothing in common. Usually people leaving California stay in the West somewhere. Most people would not want a cold climate like Pennsylvania.
Smokes? There's your first dumb choice.
With the beer and cigarettes your health is a total disaster.
You are Pennsylvania's problem now.🤣
I didn't think they would cut honestly
Two things we are not allowed to audit The Fed and Elections ..That’s how they stay in power
Elections are always monitored. There's counts and recounts, audits, court cases, judges. The problem here is you don't like the result. Big difference
@@S1513-b6v 2020 was the most corrupt election in history .
89 democrats and 4 Republicans makes up the federal reserve economist. That tells you that they don't want this crash to happen under this administration
The income from interest rate drop while property tax and maintanance cost stay too high as long as the home value is too high. Homeownership become a burden for fix income earner.
What a 🤡 🌎 the US is becoming
Stability is a result of our economy's struggles with uncertainty, housing issues, foreclosures, global volatility, and the pandemic's consequences. To restore stability and promote growth, all sectors must respond quickly to concerns about growing inflation, slow growth, and trade disruptions.
Consider hiring financial advisors, estate planners or tax experts. They can provide specialized knowledge and help you navigate complex financial decisions.
Having an investment advisor is currently the best way to approach the stock market. I was going alone, but it wasn't working. I've been working with an advisor for a while now, and last year, I achieved over 85% capital growth minus dividends
This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation
Jessica Lee Horst is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you
Gold hasn't even matched inflation.
Finally, someone who gets it.
You're correct however it isn't a short term investment. It's a hedge against the dollar fiat collapse. The amount required to pay just the interest is growing exponentially. This is a ponzi scheme that is nearing it's end. The Great Reset is the collapse of the world fiat ponzi currencies and the introduction of a new currency/currencies. These new currencies might be initially gold based as most fiat currencies like to dollar once were.
BTW, he fiat dollar just reached a new low against gold.
I moved my 401k to a low risk account a year ago when youtube said the sky will fall then. Could've gained a lot of ground on it if I wouldve just left it alone... but maybe I was just ahead of the curve :p
Gas is $3.03 in Palm Beach County, FL today
Diesel is $2.65 in central Texas! These are good prices.
trump can't catch a break
$3.59-3.99 today in MI
3.99 was just off I75 exit. Don't get gas right off the highway!
I'm seeing gas at $2.62 in my zip code in Oklahoma today.
Lowest is $2.56 at Costco and Sam's Club.
Traditional pre-election gas price manipulation.
They’re lowering rates before the election.
I support wherever will help keep Trump out of the whitehouse.
Yet mortgage rates are going up...
I live in Novato! About 1 Mile from Bel Marin Keys. Novato is the most affordable place in Marin and the weather is warmer than southern Marin
There is a misunderstanding. The FED isn’t lowering interest rates by their definition they are trying to get rates back to neutral.
What the FED considers cutting rates is any rate below neutral so anything below 3%
Jerome Powell isnt even an economist.
What are his credentials?
@@DIVISIONINCISION. Globalist puppet
mike......be honest u miss miami........the yachts, jet skis, rain, greenery, soft sand, warm water, mamacitas
Cutting rates SOUNDS like something good.
Can anyone document the last year J Powell saw the inside of a supermarket? 😂
🤣😂. Exactly.. you nailed it… probably had limos on tax payers coin
The car manufacturers have run out of dummies to sell electric cars and trucks to. Buy an electric car and you will regret it.

Another good one Michael 🎉
The cut is good for business.
"Best economy ever!.... Why the rate cut? Don't mind that? 😅" - Jerome Powell probably
called being ahead of the curve.
@@grimaffiliations3671 50 bp is not ahead of the curve. Ahead of the curve would have been 1% and 6 months to a year ago!

There is a gas station in Burbank, California. That has not changed their price in at least a year and that price is 5.99 gallon for regular gas cash priCredit is 6.09A gallon. That's in BURBANK!
Gold has never been worth zero.
He’s a lawyer not an economist so now we know the real Fed agenda
I hate it when they say that bond yields are going up, they should say that bond prices are going down which increases their yield. They don't say that stock dividend yields are going up, they say that stock prices are going down which increases their dividend yields.
My bank abruptly withdrew their 8 month CD at 4.25%. I wonder why. Gasoline here in central Texas is $2.41.
I'll never forget that PG&E was the company in Erin Brockovich.

Here for my daily doom and gloom update. 🍿
50BPS cut= THE SKY IS FALLING!
25BPS cut= THE SKY IS FALLING!
You pretty much would be making the same video either way. 🤷🏻♂️
You are spot on. All this doom and gloom made me miss out
Preach!
Wait till California start taxing fairy dust and vibes.
If there is a hard landing/recession as hinted by the large rate cut, then the 10 year treasury yield will most likely be lower than it is now, far below the predicted 4%.
I'm sure the fed has the common man in mind. Whether he's got a mind to fleece the common man is another story.
Gold is insurance. It is not an investment. With the stroke of a pen, the gov you lov could outlaw your physical tomorrow like they did in 1933. If you own gold, make sure it is real US coins from the mint, not bullion or it's vaulted outside the USA.
I disagree with the sentiment that gold is money and bitcoin is not. Both of them are a store of value, and neither of them are money in the traditional sense of currency.
Don't feel bad for people in California with their gas prices. They voted in extra taxes on gas just a few years ago.
are you looking for a free lunch?
Watching Popeye as a kid taught me how to get in debt I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today😂
Maybe Trump wanted to jumpstart the process before his 50% chance to win?
If I was rich, or had extra money, I would put a huge amount into gold. Like millions. and then buy the world's best safe to keep it, hide it in.
Commercial real estate has a trillion due next year for refinancing am I correct?
Are they bailed out now?
Yes, this is one of the nastiest facts that few wish to discuss. Many large downtowns are dead for good.
too big to fail.
privatize the gains.... socialize the losses.
it's always win-win for the economic and political class.
No you are correct. It is one of the 16 black swans I am watching. The issues is still very much there... just no one is talking about it. But with contraction, unemployment going up not down. CRE will go down even further. Which means there is going to be a massive collateral crisis in just that alone... it will not stay contained.. it will move elsewhere. When it does. It's game over. But I don't think that is what starts us on the crash. I think that is banks going under again.
