    El Erian talks about market "volatility" about a market that was up 25% last year and 20% through July. That's 45% in 18 months. Then he talks about the Fed making pivots when the Fed rate has been at 5.25% for almost a year now. What the heck is this guy talking about? Does he live in some alternate universe?
  • A correction is necessary to allow rate cuts. The market wants rate cuts to prevent a correction. But the market is grossly over valued so I know who wins this one.
  • @SS-pc6qb
    Every one is talking about fed rate cuts instead they should discuss rate cuts and liquidity. This is important as if rate cuts happen with out liquidity injection interest rates will go up eventually.
