Fed Chair Powell just testified before the House, and the stock prices plummeted. It's incredible how much influence one person can have over the entire economy. As the head of the Federal Reserve, Powell's words can send shockwaves through the market.

Absolutely, his testimony can affect interest rates, inflation expectations, and overall market confidence. If the market perceives his statements as negative or indicating tougher times ahead, it reacts almost instantly.

That's why having a good financial advisor is so crucial. They can help you navigate these turbulent times and make informed decisions. I remember last year when Powell hinted at interest rate hikes. My advisor, Desiree Ruth Hoffman, had already warned me and adjusted my portfolio accordingly. It saved me from a lot of potential losses.

Desiree Ruth Hoffman? I've heard a lot about her recently. People say she has an uncanny ability to predict market movements. With everything going on, it's reassuring to have someone who can give you a heads-up on what's to come.

Yeah, she’s been fantastic for my investments too. When Powell's testimony today hinted at a possible economic slowdown, she had already positioned my assets in more defensive stocks and bonds. It's about being proactive rather than reactive.

It’s not just about reacting to the market; it’s about being prepared for different scenarios. A financial advisor like Desiree can provide that foresight. When Powell speaks, he’s essentially providing a roadmap for where the Fed thinks the economy is heading. Understanding and acting on that information can make all the difference in your financial health.

Ban cell phones from the houses!!! No gov official should be on their cell phone during these meetings. .ayhe theyd pay more attention tp their actual jobs that were paying for.

No, offense, the pots can't talk about the kettles! Both political parties really don't or can't point fingers.

We don't believe you!!!

Lies

This is more lies than truth, I can not afford the food now that I was easily paying for before and during pandemic, so how that compares with 2.3 inflation, bulls!

So who does have a seat at both tables?!

You seem to be confused, amigo. Bush2 Junior was President, during the "2007-2008 Financial Crisis", when the Market crashed. He spent a BILLION dollars "saving" big banks! It was a done deal, BEFORE the election. Obama wouldn't take office for months, after.

Exactly. I have 2331 housing units right now. The numbers don't add up with the interest rate right now. If only I bought more... Daddy needs a new horse ranch in Texas... Also my zombie company needs more cheap debt to survive.
