Don't remind me again today

The Fed's recent actions are really amazing! Lowering interest rates has made the market even more anxious.

Abstract generation in progress

Today, November 7th, the market has once again been stunned by a trap of combined punches.

Here's the situation: The Federal Reserve just cut interest rates by 25 basis points on October 29 (now 3.75%-4.00%), which should stabilize the market, right? However, after the meeting, Powell stated, “A December rate cut is not yet decided,” and this statement directly hit the market's sore spot - the three major U.S. stock indices plummeted on the spot.

To be honest, the current state of the market can be summed up in one word: chaotic.

Liquidity is evaporating: Money in the US money market is disappearing at an unprecedented rate, which is a real danger signal.

The government is still shut down: With a record length of shutdown, the government's debt structure has begun to experience problems.

The Federal Reserve plays two sets of rhetoric internally: when lowering interest rates, they say the employment data is bad, and when not lowering rates, they emphasize inflation risks. The market is confused and fluctuates accordingly.

Technology stocks are the first to be hit: When liquidity tightens, technology stocks become the first to be smashed.

Now Wall Street is waiting for one thing: when will the Federal Reserve temporarily inject funds into the market on the Treasury settlement day or key payment day to extend its life.

Ultimately, the interest rate meeting in December is a critical moment. Whether the Federal Reserve continues to cut rates to stem losses or maintains a hawkish stance will determine the direction of the market thereafter.

Everyone is watching.
