Hard to see how a few $100B of additional free interest munnie paid to people who probably have zero propensity to spend it is somehow going to create this wonderful economy after same said rate increases destroy over half a $1T of bank capital… 🤔
Atlanta Fed was fairly prescient in Q3 and was bumping up their 3Q GDP Nowcast most of 3Q coming out pretty close when all was said and done for Q3 …… going to have to see if this happens again in Q4 … but they are now starting from a pretty shitty +1.2%
