Yeah, I bought my first house at 9.25% this "inflation" is manageable.
Oh, and screw the Fed, they should have lowered the interest rate already...

Hell, I don't know anything for sure; all my real experience is pre-COVID. Nowadays, it's living in 30-60-90 day windows, you beat out a good week and hope to build off that momentum. I mostly think about what I can control, and don't have time to think too much about what I can't control.
In the past, a cut in the interest rate, especially in August and September, clients would refinance loans, freeing themselves to order new inventory or even better pay off balances due. Manufacturers do the same, freeing up funds for marketing, in-store promotions, etc. It's a shot in the arm for the fall, holidays, and end of the year run.
Nothing guaranteed, though...one hurricane taking the wrong path and all bets are off, or a thousand other variables. But it's always been that way to a certain degree.
Like Ive heard one manufacturer adjusted prices in anticipation of raised tariff costs, costs that haven't materialized... thier prices are 30-40% higher than average, and long-time clients are walking away... they will spend months chasing business they should already have in hand.

They may aim for 2% but they are lousy marksmen.

Im the same way, its a waste of precious energy to focus on things that arent, energy that can be used to change what you can.

Government nearly 40 trillion in debt
Current financial system is outdated and broken

“A federal judge already spelled this out in black and white. In June 2020, Judge Royce Lamberth warned that Bolton had “likely jeopardized national security by disclosing classified information in violation of his nondisclosure agreement obligations.”
And then Biden made it all go away.

He took John McCain's place as the intel guy for Qatar/ Muslim Brotherhood. The video shows what looks like a clear exchange of ... something. The guy talking to Bolton receives an envelope or box from his jacket inside. He discreetly puts it in Bolton's hand and it enters his custody, whatever it was. Maybe it was a birthday letter? This is ironically enough, happening at John McCain's funeral. I think that was also the picture that had that cannibal guy in there who ate a Syrian soldiers liver or kidney or some shit on video during the Globalist siege on Syria. Allegedly this investigation actually began under Biden administration . Who knows why it stalled.
X Thread that found this clip
I forgot to add the full image with everyone with the traitor McCain working with Islamic extremists on behalf of the globalists during the Globalists siege on Syria. The ISIS leader all shaved down right behind him. But people still do not want to call McCain a traitor? That is the Muslim Brotherhood AND ISIS he is in that picture smiling with. And then John Bolton took over selling them classified intel by the looks of that discreet exchange and handoff clearly on video at John McCains funeral. The man was not even in the ground and Bolton was happoly selling out. But yea sure, I guess Trump is just going after Political enemies right?? A guy selling classified intel to Islamic extremists and designated FTO's is an innocent political persecution, a persecution that began actually under the Biden admin??
