I expect a 1.0% rate cut. And I expect it to have no impact on the liquidity crisis. Japan’s rates are still at 0.5% and little good they have done for economic growth. We are going the same way.

Fed added $900 billion (with a B) in TAF auctions. Did jack nothing. Rate cut will only be a psychological band-aid. Nothing going on in the market is based on reason. This is pure emotion. Pure panic.
