The Federal Reserve's main tool for managing the economy is to change the federal funds rate, which can affect not only borrowing costs for consumers but also shape broader decisions by companies like how many people to hire. WSJ explains how the Fed manipulates this one rate to guide the entire economy. Illustration: Jacob Reynolds

The rising interest rate can surely control inflation, but won't prevent erosion of the eroding purchasing power of the US dollar. I have learnt my lesson this time. The banks can't be making money off my money, while inflation eats into it. I have set aside 650k to invest in the stock market now, since that keeps up with inflation, but I don't know how to get started.

Yes, truly, investing in the market, even if it's just the S&P 500, can keep up with inflation, because the growth rate of stocks will always exceed the inflation rate. But if you don't have the courage, you could just invest with a financial advisor, which even has greater return on investments, while securing your investment against losses.

Yeah, financial advisors could make a lot of difference, particularly in a market such as this. Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look. I have been using an FA since 2019, and I return at least $121k ROI, and this does not include capital gain.

You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a broker, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst.

Interest on reserve balances (IORB) serves as a floor for the fed funds rate (FFR). The discount rate is the effective ceiling for the FFR. At least that’s my understanding. By my lights, IORB are a subsidy to the banking system as they reduce the Fed’s remittances to the Treasury. Fed remittances to the Treasury are expected to go to $0 as it raises rates, which increases the quantity of IORB paid out. The Fed will cover such ‘losses’ and the issuing of new required liabilities through the creation of a ‘deferred asset.’

@shanmugaramarunmozhivarman755
@shanmugaramarunmozhivarman755 Жыл бұрын
Commercial banks may require cash in the short-term for a couple of reasons -- need to meet reserve requirements (how much money they're mandated to hold in vaults, etc.), there's a depositor who's asking for his/her large sum of money back, it's time for a loan to be paid back by the commercial bank, etc. So this creates the need for short-term cash (remember, most of bank's capital isn't in the form of cash -- they invest it, trade it, loan it to other people, and so on). And that's when commercial banks borrow from one another (we call the rate at which this is done the "overnight rate"), or if that doesn't work, then commercial banks borrow from the Fed (we call the rate at which this is done the "federal funds rate"). So basically, the Fed sets the federal funds rate, and that influences the overnight lending rate (the video goes into this). Think of it like JPM needing $1,000,000 right now. If they want to borrow from the Fed, they have to pay back $100,000 worth of interest. Bank of America happens to have an extra $1,000,000. So they go to JPM and offer to loan it out such that only 1,000 needs to be paid back. Obviously, JPM will loan from BOA instead of the Fed. (arbitrary example, numbers are for illustration only). If you'd like to read more about this stuff, do consider checking out nanithemoney.substack.com Cheers! Hope this sheds some clarity on the topic.

Manipulating interest rates to stimulate demand is only good as long as there are no supply disruptions. If I have literally 4 new cars on my lot, I can charge “whatever” I want, they are still going to sell no matter the interest rate. Also, I’m forced to sell at much higher prices because I don’t have the volume to remain operational at lower prices. In other words, we are screwed if we don’t fix our supply chain ASAP.

As the video says, this is something out of the Fed's control. It's true that the Fed funds rate can influence the broader economy, but your discussion of zoning laws and regulating corporations falls into the realm of politics rather than monetary policy.

I think the Fed should begin rapid balance sheet reduction first, before raising any Fed interest rates. The current inflation is due to the Ukraine war, Covid-19 disruption, and deglobalization, which cannot be solved via interest rates. Raising the interest rates will only let ordinary people suffer more, especially with the increase in the mortgage/rent payment. For ordinary people, the effect of double the mortgage/rent payment is much higher than double the energy & food bill. People can go through the unavoidable increase in their energy & food bills, but why should the Fed add a much heavier layer of higher mortgage/rent to them quickly before they can go through the higher bills first? The rapid expansion Fed balance sheet via the QE program is unhealthy, and it mainly helps the people in the financial world, while the interest rate affects the living cost of every ordinary people. I think the Fed should start the rapid balance sheet reduction first, while raising the interest rates only after the reduction is finished and give some time to the ordinary people to let them have enough income to pay for their monthly bills.

You aren't giving Brandon enough credit for canceling hundreds of thousands of jobs & causing gas prices to soar after he cancelled Keystone X, leases on over half of all federal land in the US, & barred exploration for oil in ANWR off Alaska + Chaco Valley. We're being punished by sanctions HE imposed & then proceeded to do absolutely nothing to alleviate them. The Ukraine war would've had *zero* effect on America & the economy if it weren't for him.

They r not understanding certain things. The products like food and gas have consistent demand and r not directly linked to economy. The supply is very low in those sectors and they won’t lower their prices because they know that the demand will always be high. Even if the economy crashes ,food is essential and even the basic food products have only gone up in prices even if the economy crashed. Fed cannot control supply in those essential sectors neither can they reduce demand in essential sectors. Food prices only going up will destroy demand for non essential goods and that’s going to destroy the economy

It's all good and well saying raising rates will decrease demand but 'buying a house' is a poor example. That's because it's not a choice more of a want, raising rates wont deter people from wanting to buy a house rather restrict the amount they can borrow, cooling the housing market. My take is that the federal reserve are rightly reluctant to raise rates so sharply in fear of triggering a recession but by doing so will always be behind the curve when it comes to cooling inflation. A stagnant economy with a persistent high levels of inflation is what we'll get from this... Stagflation is already here people.

Obviously these people don't live in the real world. The average American household is not doing well. People are living off of borrowed money. A lot of people have already exhausted their supplies and Have even used their savings. People have cashed in. And cashed out. The labor market is already slowing because Even though the demand is there the supply isn't. And even after Corporations and banks start closing down and the money flow stops flowing Debt Is it still going to be present. The economy is not going to bounce back. And as long as the people in charge keep enacting public enacting policies that are self destructive to our economy it's not going to ever get better. It's not gonna get better until we get a better Government administration.

The Cryptocurrencies example Bitcoins and there is others that need to have some respect for USD and it's coins its so fad in demand. But, not a USD Dollars and Coins so don't let it over turn our or mimick our USD Dollars and Coins because the currency are a different count and government and population is not able to afford much with pricing if the currency have confusions. Let set the record straight on the laws of the USD and Coins and who use it USD and Coins vs Cryptocurrencies.

Living in the USA has trained all of us to work two or three jobs so we can buy the things we need and the things we want. Feds should note this time its different and raising the federal funds rate is not enough.
