US Fed Delivers Big Rate Cut, Remains Confident On Inflation Goals | Subscribe to Firstpost

The US Federal Reserve has made its first interest rate cut since the Covid pandemic, reducing rates by 0.5 percentage points amid fears of a potential labour market slowdown. The central bank's Federal Open Market Committee lowered its key borrowing rate to 4.75%-5%, in line with market expectations. This marks the first half-point cut from emergency measures since the 2008 financial crisis. The Federal Reserve, in its commentary, noted that while job growth has slowed, economic activity remains strong, and inflation is moving towards its 2% target.

With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, and the Fed cut on interest rate which means more red ink for portfolios. I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stock portfolio, or are there ways I can safely profit from this volatile mkt?
