#美国经济指标 The comments from Federal Reserve Governor Mester remind me of several previous rounds of sharp declines I’ve experienced. Every time, someone shouts “rate cuts are coming,” the market gets excited, and in the end, it all turns into a mess. As someone who’s been through it, I have to remind everyone not to be overly optimistic. Mester is just a dovish member, and her views don’t represent the entire Federal Reserve. Inflation is still not fully under control, so calling for significant rate cuts at this point seems unreliable to me.

We need to learn to see through the motivations behind these statements. Mester was appointed during the Trump era, so she naturally leans toward more accommodative policies. But the market has clearly seen through this as well, and there was basically no reaction. This tells us not to be swayed by a single news item and to analyze all factors comprehensively.

For us ordinary investors, the most important thing is to stay clear-headed. Don’t get swept up by short-term bullish news, and don’t be frightened by bearish news either. Economic indicators are just a reference—we need to pay more attention to the actual development of projects. Avoid those hype-driven “air coins” and focus on projects with real value. Remember, in this market, surviving longer is more important than getting rich quickly.
