Why the Fed Stopped Lowering Short-term Rates

The Repo Crisis is only Part II of this Mother of All Financial Crises.

The Fed did not lower rates today and hinted that rates would remain unchanged into 2020 BECAUSE the pressure is rising for short-term rates to rise. This is confirming that all central banks have LOST control of short-term rates.
