Wall Street is expected to open lower on Friday, following U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s comments on interest rate cuts. Powell indicated that the Fed may take a cautious approach to future rate reductions, citing ongoing economic strength and persistent inflation. This news has led to a rise in bond yields and a decline in rate-sensitive stocks. Reuters:

When government does it, it sends you the bill… [which] comes in two ways: higher taxes and inflation. Make no mistake about it, inflation is a tax and not by accident. — Ronald Reagan We are currently about 1/4th of the way to being sustainable with Substack subscriptions. Not a bad start!
