"In a quite notable reversal of his rhetoric from a month ago, Fed Chair Powell seems to have abandoned his hawkish "long way" from neutral messaging, noting in his speech today that The Fed is "just below" the neutral range."
So in 4 weeks
1. Powell we are long way from neutral with rates
2. Trump - you are raising too fast
3. Powell we are just below neutral with rates
So it seems all the Fed comments are total BS re rates and economy.
Seems it is all
"just talk it up we can't let this Ponzi scheme collapse."
ie the market is a bubble but we can't say it.
"We see no major asset class, however, where valuations appear far in excess of standard benchmarks""
