Fed Rate Cut: Is It Too Late? | Macro Alf

Bankless

About this episode

Jerome Powell and the Federal Reset is about to cut rates, but the question on everyone’s mind is… What happens next?

Alfonso Peccatiello, known as "Macro Alf," is a macroeconomic analyst and investment strategist and he’s joining the pod to help us figure this out.

- Are these rate cuts just in time or too little too late?
- Is the Fed cutting by 25bps or 50bps?
- Will we get a recession or the soft landing the FED is hoping for?
- What will happen to crypto assets?

We discuss all this and more with Macro Alf, one of the top minds in macro out there.
