Oh I agree that the Fed is politically posturing for Hillz by keeping rates low...Altho the yacking by fed governors did not help with that mission.
The MARKETS are not...
Fed and markets are different animals.
I know. FED set interest rates at zero or close to it benefits the stock market. Money essentially close to free money. I see that the FED fund rate today is 1/2%.
To quote Trump from the article I linked to above, “When rates are low like this it’s hard not to have a good stock market”.
