As expected, Powell and The Fed dropped their target rate by 50 basis points yesterday, deflating some of the air in the asset markets, More rate cuts will come, but at a slower rate.

Gold got clobbered but has somewhat rebounded.

Bitcoin did likewise: dropping like a rock then bouncing back somwhat.

But gold and bitcoin/ethereum are down again.

The CBOE VIX volatility index exploded upwards.

Powell is looking old, like most of Congress and Biden.
