While today's pause by the #FOMC may seem "data dependent". It really wasn't.
Back on June 2021, I posted this time-stamped inflation-adjusted dynamic FED FUND RATE chart.
Like magic! It got worse before it got better as expected & now the FED paused as expected exactly at that key area. (click the play button to see the results)
It's like MAGIC!! Except that, it's not. It's just basic financial, monetary, and economic understanding. Free from me to you thx to trading view.
