Trump's economic stimulus plan once again has the market itching for action. The $2000 direct transfer plus aggressive rate cut expectations—this combination sounds familiar—Biden has done it too. So what was the result? Inflation soared to a 40-year high in 2022.

However, the current situation is not exactly the same. Trump's advocacy of the so-called "strong dollar" era's rate cut logic: when the economy is growing well, cut rates to stimulate, so as to maintain growth momentum. The problem is, supply cannot keep up with demand, and inflationary pressures naturally emerge. Plus, tariffs act as a "double-edged sword," making price increases hard to avoid.

In the end? The Federal Reserve is likely to be cornered. To stabilize employment and save the economy, they may have no choice but to cut rates. In this way, Trump's goal is achieved. From an asset perspective, this expectation has already begun to influence market trends.

Back at it again? History really repeats itself, just another inflation nightmare. Supply can't keep up with demand, and tariffs just add fuel to the fire. The Federal Reserve is sidelined, rate cuts are certain, and the asset bubble keeps growing. We haven't even recovered from 2022, and now it's happening again? I'll just watch. It's truly a double-edged sword, still cutting the common people's leeks. Once the rate cut expectation emerges, the market goes crazy, and the winners take all on the asset side. Strong dollar, haha, sounds good, but isn't it just money printing to dilute?

It's another round of easing and interest rate cuts. History is really repeating itself, brother.

I've seen this operation before. The lessons from 2022 are still fresh, and now it's happening again? If the supply side can't keep up, that's the fate of inflation. When tariffs are slapped down like a knife, how can prices not soar? The Federal Reserve being forced to cut interest rates is like giving risk assets a strong boost. The moon ticket prices are going to rise.

History always repeats itself, but this time, I don't know who will be cut by the sword of tariffs.

Isn't this just the same script as 2021 again? I'm truly speechless... --- Tariffs plus inflation immediately take off. The Federal Reserve has really been cornered this time. --- Basically, it's still about printing money to survive. It seems no one wants to learn from the lessons. --- $2000 sounds great, but by then, the price increase can eat up half of it. That's the game of paper money. --- The dollar is "strong" as hell. This logic is just incredible—cutting interest rates and controlling inflation at the same time. Fish and bear paws. --- Assets are going to rise. Betting that the Fed will ultimately have to compromise—same old tricks. --- Supply can't keep up with demand, that's true. But the question is, who will foot the bill? --- It's another false prosperity fueled by expectations of rate cuts. I bet in three months they'll start crying poor again.
