    If you’re referring to our exchange, you either misunderstood me or are misrepresenting what I said. I said that the odds of rates going down are decreasing because of Trumps idiocy. The Fed are increasingly more likely to raise rates than lower rates, but if Trump forces rates down it’s going to blow the whole thing up. The market is not going to like that at all because the Fed maintaining its independence is integral to the functioning of the US economy.
