Entering an interesting monetary policy time where lower rates likely FIGHT the goal of maximum employment by enabling faster labor disrupting technical (*cough* AI) investments through both cheaper financing and elevated equity valuations….

Inflation under Powell’s Fed has averaged nearly twice the annual target (for 71/2 years). A lot was fiscal dominance, but the aggressive QE certainly didn’t help.

For a Canadian company, $shop Shopify is the quintessential American company. Loan merchants $1.6bb to sell to customers buying with $AFRM buy now pay later loans. The entire world is built on financial leverage while underpricing tail risk because everyone assumes government bailouts and inflation.

I have no idea why the administration chose birthright citizenship as the case upon which to test the nature of national injunctions. I will say if SCOTUS supports this claim on this case, we’re well and truly cooked. These passages are from the US Senate debates on the 14th amendment.

One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.

For those following along, Chair Powell and the Fed were on a path to cut rates several times this year until a higher than expected tariff driven inflationary supply shock caused them to wait on more data. I’m no Fed apologist, but JFC enough with this ridiculousness already.

How every other country must look at the US leveraging our consumer base to negotiate lower tariff rates while risking the way that consumer base sustains itself. It’s all just so dumb.

For the record, Congress can end this tariff madness in a day and be absolutely more consistent with Constitutional authority (Article I, Section 8).

No, the CHIPS Act isn’t horrible. Yes, the “United States Investment Accelerator” is cover for steering government funds to those who bend the knee with minimal oversight. No, it could not be more obvious. Yes, it’s horrific.

I like to think the collective efforts of so many had softened the target to make it more obvious to everyone the ridiculous narrative constructing financial engineering Twitter and xAI have done. Hopefully everyone will understand this questionable transaction isn’t a one off.

Anyone (@reuters) saying the branches of government are “co-equal” should reread the US Constitution. Review the powers vested in each branch. Who makes laws? Who MUST enforce them? Show us where the executive branch can remove members of Congress, because I definitely see Article II, Section 4.

So, after punishing inflation THREE years ago, we’re now on track to get back to our target of 2% by… 2027–a full 5 years. Fed should maybe stop saying they understand the impacts on families from the lack of price stability in this period, particularly with tariff uncertainty looming.

To be clear, if the President wants to change the law, he needs to pass new ones through Congress. He can even “recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” Otherwise, he should “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.”

I’ve read the US Constitution so many times the last six weeks. No amount of contortion can lead a reasonable person to believe the Executive branch has more granted powers to shape America than Congress.
