      The core of this year's US election is Sweep! To win big!

      I attended the $BlackRock(BLK)$ Private Equity Summit today, which was quite rewarding. Blackstone's chief economist believes that the Fed's rate cuts will be less frequent and smaller than expected, and that inflation is likely to restart next year, with a new round of rate hikes beginning in October 25.The core of this year's US election is Sweep! To win big! Neither side wants to just win the White House, not a small win but a big win, and both sides are shouting to sweep the White House and Congress!Doing well on the fiscal front is critical. Neither Trump nor Harris has prioritized fiscal discipline, and the US federal deficit is likely to remain around $2.0 trillion per year for the next few years. Whether the deficit situation can be changed

      The Federal Reserve is likely to Change its Policy at the November Meeting

      The recent U.S. macroeconomic data is so strong that the Federal Reserve regrets cutting interest rates.

      US Jackson Hole Preview: Turning Point Anticipated

      We expect Federal Reserve Chairman Powell to hint that upcoming data supports the FOMC to begin policy normalization as soon as possible, which almost solidifies the expectation of a rate cut in September. Although we believe Powell won't rule out the possibility of a 50 basis point rate cut in September, he might downplay concerns about the Fed being behind the curve or the U.S. economy deteriorating rapidly. Our base forecast remains a 25 basis point cut. We anticipate that by the end of the year, the Fed will have accumulated a 50 basis point rate cut. However, the risks to this view are becoming more one-sided, with more evident weakness in the labor market potentially challenging the Fed's employment mandate, necessitating further easing.🚶‍♂️ Step Back Before the Rate Cut: Following t

      Why is the Fed not cutting rates & talking about hiking them this year?(3)

      4.Outlook for the Next Steps"Currently, the US economy faces both short-term and long-term challenges. In the short term, inflation in energy, food, real estate, and the service industry continues to rise. The Federal Reserve certainly cannot cut interest rates now, and the earliest possibility would be in June. This year is also an election year in the United States. According to convention, with the election scheduled for early November, the Fed can only stay put in September and October, regardless of whether it's cutting or maintaining interest rates. Any changes in monetary policy during the two months before the election will be labeled as "politicizing monetary policy." As an independent institution authorized by the US Congress, the Fed will never be dragged into political turmoil.

      Why is the Fed not cutting rates & talking about hiking them this year?(2)

      2."Is US Inflation Making a Comeback?"Certainly, the biggest variable regarding interest rate cuts is inflation. This year's inflation data has put the Federal Reserve in a somewhat awkward position. Firstly, energy prices have been steadily rising. Crude oil prices have reached $86, noticeably impacting Americans at the gas station.Gold prices have recently surged, breaking the $2300 mark and hitting historic highs, signaling market expectations of further inflation. While the Fed may attribute the rise in oil prices to Middle East tensions, financial markets find this hard to accept. Looking at the real estate market, the overall US housing market price index has risen by about 4% this year, and rents have increased. Consequently, the equivalent rent weight within the CPI is bound to con
