Below are some more expectations after rate cut：

EY economist @GregDaco：

A 50 basis point rate cut isn’t a signal of any reason to panic, but I do think it's very important that the Fed and Fed Chair Powell, during the press conference, focus on a forward-looking framework, data dependency is done.

@Cointelegraph

Here’s everything that went down in today’s Fed Rate Cuts.
Fed cuts interest rates by 50 bps — first cut since 2020.
Two more rate cuts are expected in 2024.
One Fed governor dissented, favoring a 25 bps cut.
This is the first dissent since 2005.
Fed has "greater confidence" inflation is nearing 2%
Fed is waiting for inflation data and jobs report for their decision on next cut.

@FXN_Trading：

With the Fed cutting rates by 50 basis points, marking their first cut since March 2020, this is certainly one of the most surprising decisions since 2009. A cut of this magnitude could signal deeper concerns about the economy, and we’ll likely see significant market reactions in the days ahead. It’s going to be interesting to watch how this affects market sentiment, inflation expectations, and investor positioning moving forward.

everything goes up. but big tech already went up a lot, so other stuff might go up more e.g. 10yr bond etf TLT, REITS, small caps who are sensitive to interest rates due to higher leverage. I'm not doing anything. already bought all these before the Fed reduced rates. now sit back and reap the rewards.
