I’m glad Trump doesn’t have zero interest rates to deal with. That left the middle class out of safe investment options. It is nice to be getting something these days, even if it is still a pittance.

It is nice to be getting something, but it is a catch 22. If Interest rates kept going up then the housing market would slow down and then the economy would slow down. President Trump was not happy with the rate they were going up. There were plans to increase them 3 more times this year, but I think he got them to slow down.
