Inflation just came in surprisingly soft—well below what everyone was betting on. At this point, a 50 basis point rate cut from the Fed looks way overdue. The market's been pricing in a move for weeks, and with these numbers, it's hard to see them holding off much longer.

Wow, the inflation data is so soft? Can Powell hold it in? It's about time to cut interest rates.

Damn, inflation is so soft right now. It's outrageous that the Fed isn't cutting interest rates immediately.

The expectation of interest rate cuts is so strong, but will the Federal Reserve really act so quickly? I can't bet on it.

What is Powell still pretending for? The data is like this, and he still hasn't taken action? It should have been a 50 basis point hike long ago.
