Inflation is persisting at high levels, with core inflation rates at X% and moving higher, while unemployment remains low at 4.1%. Despite this, there are concerns that the Federal Reserve may not be taking sufficient action to address inflation, with some critics arguing that it is prioritizing asset prices and growth over inflation control. This dynamic is contributing to a rise in populist sentiment and criticism of the Fed's independence.

"Trump has basically copied Bidens economic agenda but with a closed border Overstimulate demand. Beg for rate cuts for no reason but try to lean on the Fed regardless.

"@hump_bear But its very counter to equity market narratives that the Fed could refuse to cut at all and just be more vocal about a commitment to inflation Powell would just need to hold and emphasize the inflation side of the mandate.

"@stevehou0 Yes if you consider 401K / IRA withdrawals + the monthly income (annuity value) of pension / SS + home equity boomers have really hit the trifecta.

"@conorsen Home prices are declining LSD-MSD% in many markets But in the aggregate price levels are moving higher and I think it gets worse.

"What is the bear narrative going to be when housing starts are down XX% in 2H & unemployment stays in the low 4%s with inflation is X% and rising The only constant is everyone invents a narrative on why growth is about to weaken and inflation decline so keep that in mind" @rev_cap on X 2025-07-18 22:36:07 UTC 26.9K followers, 7414 engagements
"@neilksethi @NickTimiraos @colbyLsmith @steveliesman Can one of you ask this week if it seems appropriate to have financial conditions be roughly as loose as they have ever been in an environment of XX year low unemployment and inflation reaccelerating This is the Feds measure of FCI" @rev_cap on X 2025-07-21 10:13:53 UTC 26.9K followers, XXX engagements

"@TheLAPurchaser The part of the job market that everyone focuses on (professional services) is absolutely tiny. We live in a very small bubble.

"@eliant_capital I am probably too concerned about the Fed. Trying to let go of my bizarre bias that at some point they will care about inflation given how bad this is I am like Druckenmiller who says he has to fight this bias to be bearish every day.

"@eliant_capital 2017 had the easiest growth comps in ever not coming out of a recession and was the start of fiscal dominance. No inflation.

"@tylermacro10 @conorsen Thanks.
