The Potential Impact of Interest Rate Cuts on the Economy

A recent article in The Economist discussed the president-elect’s view on interest rates, suggesting that he may push for steeper rate cuts now that he is in charge. This scenario brings to mind the cautionary tale of The Monkey’s Paw, where wishes have unintended consequences.

1. Steep interest rate cuts often coincide with recessions, as seen in recent history. Recessions are generally unfavorable for the economy.

2. While Trump may desire aggressive rate cuts alongside a robust economy, there is a risk of triggering high inflation. Current market indicators suggest a more moderate approach to rate cuts to avoid inflationary pressures.

3. If the Fed were to implement even deeper rate cuts, it could lead to either inflation resurgence or recession, given the strong economic growth in recent quarters.

It is essential to note that a balanced approach to interest rate adjustments is crucial for economic stability. Predictions indicate a tapering of rate cuts in the coming year, which would be the optimal outcome. Trump, if presented with these scenarios, would likely reconsider advocating for drastic rate cuts, reminiscent of cautionary tales like The Monkey’s Paw or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

Here is an illustration from The Monkey’s Paw:
