    • The opposite of what some experts believe.

    But look at the evidence!

    This is a graph of the stock market (S&P 500 -- the broadest index of the US economy) since 1999 --
    Red arrows are Fed Rate cuts, Green arrows are rate increases, and blue arrows are "no change".

    See the greatly delayed effect of a rate cut? They basically cut rates AS the stock market is bearish (going down) and they raise rates while the stock market rises.
