Cheer up, Mr. Market... New to the Digest? [Click here.]( [Manward Digest] Cheer Up, Mr. Market... [Alex Moschina] Alex Moschina Publisher What are we going to do with you, Mr. Market? For more than a year, you've made it clear that you want rates to come down... and you want them to come down NOW. And finally, after months and months of speculation that the Fed is ready to make the big move... It's looking more likely than ever that we're going to get that long-awaited rate cut. And what do you do? PRACTICALLY NOTHING. [[Seven Must-Own Stocks for AI Investors. Details Here.]( The July CPI numbers confirmed the Fed is close to winning its war on inflation. Consumer prices rose 0.2%... just as analysts were expecting. Overall inflation came in below 3% for the first time since the spring of 2021. A September rate cut is all but guaranteed. And yet... Mr. Market... you sit idly by, seemingly unamused. SPONSORED [The Next Breakout AI Stock?]( You probably haven't heard about [this revolutionary AI technology](. Or the little-known startup behind it. Yet it could soon become [the new top-performing AI stock](. Discover why it may have the power to transform regular Americans' wealth [>>RIGHT HERE<<]( It could be that you've forgotten how to trust. "Fool me once, shame on you," you say. "Fool me dozens of times? Shame on me." It's true... the path to our first rate cut in 52 months hasn't always been easy. But what else do you need to see? Tomorrow's unemployment figures, perhaps? That's fair. As Shah pointed out in [his Monday Takeaways]( the strength of our labor market is the other half of the Fed's rate equation. And we did just see a historic VIX spike on the heels of weaker-than-expected jobs numbers. All of a sudden, it sparked whispers of a recession. But...

But this little-known alternative investment could hand you BIG MONTHLY INCOME from the oil and gas surge in 2024. [CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS]( Those whispers [quickly died down](. Now here we are... with inflation clearly cooling... on the precipice of a 25 or even 50 basis point rate cut. Maybe you need to see it to believe it. Or maybe you are taking Shah's advice from Monday... and tempering your optimism. As he put it: I don't think we're out of the woods. I want to believe that this is a great buy the dip moment. Maybe some of you did. Good on you if you did. You're in the right direction, so far so good. But be safe out there because the worst may not be over, but I'm hoping it is. Either way, Mr. Market, this morning's CPI numbers were an encouraging sign of what's to come. Here's hoping Thursday's unemployment report puts a little more pep in your step.
