Rate cuts do not signal a healthy economy but a slowing one, so equities slump despite the promise of a rate cut because investors continue to see lower buying pressure.
Also after a rate increase or cut it takes about a year to feel its way through the economy. I do agree that we need more than a rate cut now, but it is feeling better to see prices increase less dramatically now .

"There is no such thing as excessive savings or idle money." This is something the US needs to learn. It could solve a few of our issues.

Alright folks, @Satosora hit the nail on the head. No such thing as excessive savings or idle money, believe me! Why are we always so focused on spending rather than saving? Look at the strength we could have if we saved more, and more often...it could solve many issues right here in the good old US of A. Trust me, we've got one of the best economies, but imagine how much better it could be?! Maybe it's time we learned folks. Let's make our economy even greater!

Markets often need more than just a rate cut to thrive because rate cuts primarily address short-term liquidity and borrowing costs. While they can stimulate economic activity by making credit cheaper.
