Papa Powell will bring discipline to the unruly teenagers who think they have control of his "house".

They are tourists (these Masters of the Universe). The pimp hand of capital formation and the landlord who "rents" money is now exerting his authority.

Let the thumb sucking and gnashing of teeth begin.

Houses are still $250k on average over what they were in 2020 in my area. I'd say he still has work to do but whether he has the stones to do it is another matter with all the outside influence

I thought the same thing when trucks and SUVs shot up to 65k or more with elevated rates. Who the fuck can afford a 70k Tahoe at 6% interest? Well apparently a lot of people can lol. He's got to bring the hurt on some of these people before it makes a dent.

That shit ain’t coming down until real inflation drops. The commodity market is on steroids. Steel selling for more than aluminum. Those items aren’t based on sentiment, but global commodity rates. I couldn’t believe last June when it was cheaper to buy 3 tons of aluminum than steel at work. That makes cars real cost over double what it was regardless of competition or interest rates.

I’m highly regarded but I don’t think the costs for houses are going to come down much ever no matter what. Best you’re gonna get are lower rates one day. The farts out of the barn now as they say 🥴

Definitely tomorrow. Don't know why it isn't red. Spy was red this morning and last night I was going buy puts but decided against because this market is absolute regarded in what it wants.

Just crash to 0 and let's all start over. Whoever has the most toilet paper wins.

Has the Fed ever do anything differently than what they said they would do in terms of rate hikes and pace?

Why would he do anything differently this time?

Its the AI. It's gotta be. I highly doubt real people would be making these bizzare movements. AI runs the market and being unpredictable is the best way to proposely sway the numbers in your direction. Well, when you have enough money to be a market-maker

They're never going back down that far. Houses in essence are meant to be anti inflationary so when there's large inflation the house prices will go down slightly and stay flat at best. The only reason 08 happened was because like 90% of people had ARM's and weren't thoroughly vetted on their sources of income. This is different.

What I have been seeing is a decrease in inventory of homes for sale and a drastic increase in homes for rent. Why would anyone give up those sweet low mortgage rates at a way lower price than what they want?

I hope I'm wrong too, but as someone who bought their house in 2020 and has a 2.25% 30yr fixed rate I would absolutely buy up another house if it ever crashed and rent out the one I have.

I only put 10% down and my mortgage is $1570 with the $70 a month PMI falling off soon. Rent comps in my area are $2300-2500 for my property. There's no reason for me to ever sell it and I know multiple people in the same boat that would do the same thing.

It's unfortunate, but the rich get richer and everyone else gets left behind.

Sounds like the government should take over companies. Easiest way to control inflation! :)

One thing never fails - tomorrow CNBC Steve Liesman will ask Powell about the market rally this year and how that affects inflation. Of course Powell will talk tough after hearing this. This guy has pulled this the last few meetings.

That is exactly why I feel that the whole " 5% terminal rate bro and then massive pivot " is some soft landing meme cope . So much more work for feds to do that chances are we might either go past 5% to 6-6.5%, or we stay at 5% for a lot longer then we expect to.

As awesome as some rate cut or ending rates here would be things are still far too overshot to risk doing that now.
