Todays news from America is massive. First sign of trouble and the Fed folds. This is going to have a massive impact on the future Fed decisions on rate rises. They will halt them soon and come up with any excuse so that they can pivot.Originally posted by AtW View Post

Basically this has proven that it's impossible to raise rates without breaking the entire financial system....meaning we won't be able to get inflation under control but that plays second fiddle when faced with a potential bank crisis.
