You’re just not paying attention.
I gave you my terms above.
Here, I'll explain it to you. The first thing you have to know is what a target growth rate is. A target growth rate is what the FED wants the economy to grow at. Forever and as long as the FED has existed, the target growth rate has been 3%. That means if growth is heating up, the FED will raise rates to get the growth (inflation) back down to 3%, but if growth is anemic, the FED will drop rates to get the economy growing again.
Under Obama the average annual growth rate was 2%, but the cost of money was already zero (1/4%, hell not even that, 1/8%, as in 0.125%) they had a term for that, all it meant was interest rates hit the floor, money cost nothing; which is another way of saying the money was worth nothing. We had become Japan. Finally, as Obama's 8th term in office was ending, Yellen (head of the FED; Obama chose her) decides to raise the interest rate 1/4% to 3/8% ... out of desperation to revive the carry trade. Even though there was no growth to base it on. We were still under the target growth rate. So, how does Yellen justify it? She lowers the target growth rate to 2%. That's right, we want to underperform. while everyone's jaw was dropping she then, grasping for straws, says, unemployment numbers are real good, so she cites that as a reason to raise rates; literally saying the FED needs to trim employment and lay more people off. That's why Yellen was canned immediately by Trump.
Okay, now what? The Trump economy actually did grow at 4.2% (higher, by the way, than any single year of Obama's) and the FED was projecting it would go to 5%, so they raised interest rates another 1/4% to 0.625%. Justifiable, this time. Pissed Trump off same as it would any president.
So where are we now? The white house says we are looking at a return to 3% growth, but the FED says we are looking at closer to 2% growth. Either way, the FED is pulling in their horns and signalling no more rate hikes.
The rest is just political writers trying to sling mud at Trump.
