Look, this is basic macroeconomics. The OCR should have gone up three months ago. These 'undecided' economists clearly skipped class that day.

I literally wrote a textbook on this kid. Come back when you've got a PhD.

ffs just raise the thing already. My mortgage is killing me and I'd rather just know how bad it's gonna get.

Jamie Fox2026-07-07T06:33:54.000Z

I'm just grateful I fixed my rate for 5 years back in 2024. Watching everyone sweat is stress relieving tbh
