On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced it is cutting interest rates by half a percentage point.
Its the first cut since 2020 and a long-awaited decrease to historically high interest rates.

The economy would be very bad, or theyre playing politics.
But it was a big cut.
At a rally in North Carolina earlier on Wednesday, a reporter asked Trumps vice presidential pick J.D.
Vance for his reaction to the rate cut.
Right-wing commentators on X, formerly Twitter, are also alleging a conspiracy.
Either the economy is about to crash OR theyre trying to rig the election.
Thank god for the independence of the Fed!
