Yo Adrian! Trump and Vance Tag-Team the Fed Like Apollo and Me in Round 15!

Gonna Fly Now... Towards Lower Rates?

Yo Adrian check this out! Seems like the big boss Trump and his right hand man Vance are tag team partners now goin' after the Federal Reserve like I went after Apollo Creed in the first flick. They want lower interest rates see? Vance even said on that X thingy 'the refusal by the Fed to cut rates is monetary malpractice.' Monetary malpractice! Sounds like a jab to the kidneys if you ask me. But Drago’s punches were worse.

Inflation? More Like Infriction!

So the numbers came out right? Inflation went up just a little bit. Not much. But Trump's been on Powell's case about them rates for ages. He wants a full point cut! A whole point! That's like knockin' someone out in the first round almost! But the Fed is playin’ coy see? Like Mickey used to do with me. “One more round Rock!”

Rocky's Economic Knockout Punch?

Trump and Vance are usin' those inflation numbers like a speed bag poundin' 'em to make their point. They're sayin' lower rates are the way to go. 'Cause of the economy and stuff. I dunno I just know I gotta keep trainin'. Gotta keep movin'. Gotta keep punchin'. Just like the economy am I right?

The Fed's Gonna Do What? Wait?!

The Fed's got their own ideas. They eased up a little last December but they're worried about them tariffs. You know those things that make stuff more expensive? It’s like tryin' to buy Adrian a nice dress and finding out it costs a fortune! They ain't gonna make a move this week they say. September maybe. These guys are slower than Butkus trying to catch a greased pig. No offense Butkus you're a good dog!

Cut Me Mick!

These administration fellas keep sayin' that inflation is gettin' better and the job market is chillin' out. That means it might be time to lower them rates. But this lady from J.P. Morgan Elyse Ausenbaugh says the Fed might just play it safe. Like Apollo before he started taking me seriously! 'It's a tough spot,' she says. Tell me about it! Try takin' a punch from Drago!

Gonna Fly Now...Or Gonna Stand and Fight?

So there you have it Adrian! The Prez and Vance are in the Fed's face. They want those rates down and they want 'em now! But the Fed's gonna do what the Fed's gonna do. It's all a big fight see? Just like in the ring. But instead of punches they're throwin' around numbers and policies. I still don’t understand that computer Adrian gave me but I do understand what it means to be knocked down and get back up! But hey that's the way it goes. Gotta keep fightin' right? Yo!
