pana... in isolation yes... but then you have the deficit... the debt... the roll over of the debt... debasement... weaponization of the USD and the US banking system... wars,and more wars... tariffs... a WH that lies constantly and is more interested in personal enrichment... a fed of ignorant doves dressed as hawks...


then there is

PPI for september 1.3%.. annualised 17%

CPI for september 0.6% .. annualised 7.4%

how can fed funds at 3.75 mean anything?

and if they raise rates to make them real positive... budget deficit will explode... and what is the benefit of raising rates to control inflation when the government spends and spends?

10-19-26  victor

savo, right.

yet another reason to bet that the gop will lose both houses of congress.

Savo, isn't that the whole idea behind higher rates?

10-18-26  panasonic

Carib, yes breaking things rarely conduct to prosperity.

10-18-26  savo

it is happening!

the whole thing in reverse... after 40 years of positive wealth effect ...

40 years of falling rates... and people using their homes as an ATM... 40 years refinancing at lower rates ... and extracting equity from their homes as home prices went up and using that money to buy cars... refurbish their homes... pay tuition, botox and new teeth

no more refi... no more atm... the whole economy in reverse...

now we will see how naked is the king... how sandy is the US economy castle...

Miami was the strongest buyer’s market among the 10 leading U.S. metropolitan areas in September, with home sellers outnumbering buyers by 158.9%, according to Redfin data shared by Charlie Bilello.

Miami had 18.9K home sellers compared with 7.3K buyers, the largest percentage gap in the ranking. Nashville, Tennessee, followed, with sellers outnumbering buyers by 152.3%, while Houston, Texas, ranked third at 134.6%.

Nashville had 18.1K sellers and 7.2K buyers, while Houston recorded 47.5K sellers against 20,230 buyers. Although Houston had the largest number of sellers among the 10 markets, Miami had the widest relative gap between sellers and buyers.

Austin, Texas, ranked fourth, with sellers exceeding buyers by 130.9%. The city had 18.1K sellers and 7.8K buyers. San Antonio, Texas, came fifth at 125.6%, with 19.2K sellers and 8.5K buyers.

Las Vegas ranked sixth, with sellers outnumbering buyers by 125.5%. The market had 14.2K sellers compared with 6.3K buyers, putting it just behind San Antonio in the ranking.

Orlando, Florida, placed seventh, with a 123% gap between sellers and buyers. It recorded 20.1K sellers and 9K buyers. Dallas, Texas, followed in eighth place, with sellers outnumbering buyers by 121.9%, as there were 31.4K sellers compared with 14.2K buyers.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, ranked ninth, with sellers exceeding buyers by 117.8%. The city had 17.8K sellers and 8.2K buyers. Atlanta, Georgia, rounded out the top 10, with a 110.4% gap, recording 41.5K sellers against 19.1K buyers.

The September ranking was dominated by Sun Belt markets, with three cities in Florida and four in Texas. Miami led the group by a margin of more than 6 percentage points over Nashville, while Atlanta had the smallest seller-to-buyer gap among the 10 markets, at 110.4%.

The figures indicate that sellers substantially outnumbered buyers in each of the 10 markets, with the gap ranging from 110.4% in Atlanta to 158.9% in Miami. The ranking is based on the percentage by which home sellers outnumbered buyers, rather than the absolute number of homes listed for sale.

CNN
—
Ucrania lanzó durante la noche del sábado uno de sus mayores ataques con drones de este año contra Rusia y alcanzó una importante terminal petrolera, desafiando la exigencia del presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, de que deje de atacar la infraestructura energética rusa.

Las tensiones entre Ucrania y Estados Unidos han aumentado en los últimos días, lo que ha generado temores en Kyiv de que pueda perder un apoyo esencial mientras se aproxima otro invierno bajo los incesantes ataques rusos.

Sin embargo, Ucrania mantiene sus ataques de largo alcance contra Rusia. El Ministerio de Defensa ruso afirmó que derribó 1.015 drones ucranianos durante la noche del sábado al domingo en distintas partes del país.

the most nefarious sentence in the history of mankind:

"whatever it takes"

by Draghi

10-18-26  savo

the responsible for all this mess is satanist Draghi... by reducing rates to zero... he encouraged government borrowing... now there is too much debt... and rates are going up... so to much cost to keep up.. and not enough money for illegal immigrants, students, energy and various wars.

Same thing in the US...
