The Fed has never had rates as low as they were in the 2008-2023 period.

And now we have to go into an easing cycle.

The something wrong is that the economy doesn't come out of a shock in a linear manner, only to get pounded with 0% rates then inflation, and now Trump. It sways up and down and up and down for quite some time - years. Complex stuff is adjusting.

Just give it room to breathe, man. Non-economists have such little patience.

Bessent really meant to say "Elon has been too high for too long" but for whatever reason had a slip.

The Fed is legally structured to act (nominally) independent of political pressures. If Treasury commentary is too heavy‐handed, it risks undermining credibility or be perceived as interference.
