Khin8858 : the market been waiting for very long on the cut
102362254 : I’m hoping for lower interest rates on my mortgage, which would reduce my monthly payments and give me more disposable income. While a rate cut could lower the interest on my savings, I’d still keep some in the bank for security but consider shifting part of it to higher-yield investments. Lower rates might also make borrowing more appealing, but I’d carefully evaluate these options based on the broader economic outlook and my personal financial goals.
mr_cashcow : Would you still keep your savings in the bank?

Yes but only a small sum for emergencies, most of my cash are being allocated to other vehicles that generates high yields, gotta put those idle money to work
Wonder : I think FED will start with a 25bp cut, the mkt may dip first (as the expectation has been priced in) followed by positive sentiments driving up the mkt.
With rate cuts in the horizon, I will consider keeping some funds in high yield interest rate account that offers promo cash rebate as well. My balanced approach includes low risk investments.
Au62 : The economy of the USA is still very healthy, and I don't think there will be an interest rate cut in September.
Lucas Cheah : A Fed rate cut can have an impact on my daily life where my mortgage would be cheaper. However, it would also reduce returns on savings accounts, making them less attractive for holding large sums of money. While keeping some savings in the bank for emergencies remains essential, the diminished returns would push me to explore alternative investments such as bonds, stocks, or real estate to achieve higher yields.
Choca_bella : Ready
70852907 102362254 : Well Said…I 2nd That Motion…
Ziggz420 : Think there will be a small rate cut probably around.25 to .37 and yes I'll keep a nice chunk of money in savings but will purchase a couple CDs to get higher interest rate honestly believed I had more time before rate cut I suppose there's a possibility it actually goes up or stays same rate but I doubt it believe a rate cut is coming it's been that time to jump start economy and try to curb this run away inflation. Market itself will most likely dip at 1st early in day after announcement and then recover or go up 2-4 points by end of trading day
Ziggz420 Au62 : maybe compared to Asia but we are hurting a lot news just isn't telling the true story
