I think the Fed is going to have a very very difficult time doing that....ever again. They are running out of options
Are you saying we are not in a free market environment?The stock market will never "peak", it may correct but once it starts to go back up it will go through that peak. That is until the Fed. runs out of options lol. Not at all. I am saying that the fed and other central banks have run out of tools. Normally during a recession the fed would drop rates to increase liquidity and try to drive up asset prices. We are still almost at zero. There is not much left to reduce. They have already said they won't go negative even though other central banks have done so They have essentially run out of flexibility.

What was it 2018 when the fed killed the market by raising interest rates? If they raise them again, the market will drop again. Just like the triple rate cut gets you 20% market gains pattern.

Why would we need rate cuts in a booming economy?

Because it is not booming. It is anemic.

Someone always has to go political.
The market is up now, but will eventually go down. I stay away from stocks, after my investments in tech stocks went to zero in 2002 (I think it was). Yes, stocks can lose all their worth.
I now invest only in mutual funds, and don't look at my statements when the market drops. This strategy has worked well for me since then.

Hate to tell you this James but your mutual fund is invested in stocks. Don't get mad at me, I'm just yanking your chain lol. Why would we need rate cuts in a booming economy?
Because it is not booming. It is anemic. Can't be everyone says it's booming(it is). But wait, we've cut rates to recession levels and started QE 4 although they say claim it's not(Wink, wink)
