Fed Chair Jerome Powell speaks to the Foreign Bankers' Association in Amsterdam — 5/14/2024

[Muller_Andr]

Is the stock market actually getting better or is this the regular end of year market manipulation to entice new investors, I'm currently sitting on an inheritance of 300k and i'm wondering do I invest in stocks or Gold?

It's a common misconception that when a stock you buy skyrockets, the smart thing to do is sell it (or at least sell some of it) to lock in your profits. But the context matters. If the stock has increased sharply because the business is performing exceptionally well, it could still be a bargain. I'm still looking for companies to make additions to my $350K portfolio, to boost performance. Here for ideas...

[MikeDavis-zgud]

inflation is a wealth transfer mechanism, its a feature not a problem for those in the know

[PaulCurleyBC]

Thank you for posting the video. Much appreciated.

[ttsqftm]

Why is stock market not part of inflation calculation when it's the number one driver.

[frankh]

i jumped everytime the guy does that "Huh!"

[anniealexander]

Investors are like the side chick believing the man is going to leave his wife. Powell is not going to cut rates.

[simpiwemaqwara]

Indirectly, he is saying no rates cuts this year

[signalmanfive]

The big difference between the 1970's inflation and today's inflation is we do not measure inflation the same today as it was measured back then. So, when measuring with an inaccurate stick, the numbers are not correct. This inflation is just as bad as it was back then. Fed rates should be much higher.

[ehinspections]

I live in the US and this is an alternate reality...

Economic investigator Frank G Melbourne Australia is following this informative content cheers Frank 😊

[Wonka]

Just look at when the ECB was playing catch up to the Fed in September 2022; 91 cents per Euro. That divergence coupled with rising oil and gas.

[yoban]

Good morning everyone …protect your assets.

[satoriasimov]

If we want to see prices come down we’d have to see inflation go negative ultimately. And if that happens that’ll cause a recession

[marcusjewelry]

Why can't America infinitely create/print their own fiat, unbacked dollars instead of "borrowing"/ paying interest to a central bank owned by a few rich people ??

[RE-vqmt]

Are technology age needs to take its next step to set everything in a greater system. I mean the start up of open information worldwide but we should very carefully with are steps in are new technology

[anniealexander]

Higher than expected inflation. Markets rally. 🥴

[jcschwarb]

Families are doing just wonderful under Powell and Biden

[dandelion]

Europe & Asia will never be able to overtake US economic output because of a multitude of factors. If they do, it will take greater than 50 years if not a century.

Despite having double & sometimes triple the population of the US. Their economic output is lower & productivity if not lower (EU) is lesser in quality (Asia).

One of the largest reasons is something at Powell touched on: US economic structure is hyper fixated on diverse labor markets & job growth combined with a large start up culture combined with many ambitious individuals. Something that is tied to the progressive economic“culture” of the US since the late 1800s to early 1900s at least.

Every country has its population of unproductive people who would rather fixate on transgressions and issues tied to their hubris. Even America has these groups but they are massively prevalent in Europe.

[stoneyja]

Powell says they're committed to helping the lower end of the spectrum. what a joke
