What we learned from last night's big debate... New to the Digest? [Click here.]( [Manward Digest] What We Learned From Last Night's Big Debate [Alex Moschina] Alex Moschina Publisher Yaaawn... We're still recovering from watching last night's big debate, which kicked off right around our usual bedtime. But knowing the shape the country - and our economy - is in, we figured it would be worth losing some Z's to catch the action. In retrospect, we should've just set the DVR and watched at 2x speed this morning. [[Alexander Green Reveals the ONE AI Stock He's Invested $100K Right Now. Click Here to Find Out.]( Aside from a few spirited barbs, neither candidate delivered anything new or unexpected. Though according to The New York Times, they did technically spend more time discussing the economy than any other issue. A whopping 10 minutes and 19 seconds! [Harris - Trump Time Breakdown from the Debate]( Source: The New York Times. [View larger image]( And yet, if you watched the debate, you likely gleaned no more insight into Trump's or Harris' economic policies than you had before. Trump wants to ramp up import taxes, lower corporate taxes, and knock down oil prices. Harris wants to raise the top individual income tax rate, bump up the corporate tax rate, and incentivize first-time homebuyers and small business owners with hefty tax credits. Economists say the plans will raise the deficit by as little as $1.2 trillion (Harris) or as much as $5.8 trillion (Trump) by 2034. The good news? [As we've long said]( debt doesn't matter anymore. Only eggheads worry about something as trivial as a balanced budget. And speaking of eggheads... SPONSORED [$100,000 Passive Income Stream]( [Collecting Passive Income]( Thanks to [a little-known alternative investment](... One man was able to turn a single $1,000 investment into a $100,000 income stream - over 50 years - without touching a single stock! [Click here to find out how]( The just-released August CPI report showed that consumer prices climbed "only" 2.5% last month compared to 2.9% in July. It further shows that inflation is cooling... and justifies the Fed's long-anticipated rate cut, set to be announced just a week from now. Yes, happy times are coming. But not happy enough for folks on Wall Street who were hoping for a 50 basis point cut. Factoring in the latest CPI data, the CME FedWatch Tool now shows an 85% chance that Jay Powell and his crew will cut rates by a less exciting 25 basis points. A month ago, the tool showed the odds of a half of a percent cut were roughly 50/50. The major indexes were down this morning, partly due to the shift. Though let's not forget... It's September. SPONSORED [Nvidia's Secret Partner... This Is The New AI Chip Powerhouse]( [Chatbot conversation]( I bet you've never heard of it... but this newly public company is set to become key to Nvidia's seat on the AI throne. And for now... you can get in while it's still cheap. [Details Here!]( As Shah noted in [his Monday Takeaways](... and as [Robert further explored]( yesterday... markets are wont to drop in September. It's historically the worst month of the year for stocks. In times of high inflation... low inflation... and regardless of whether it's an election year... During September, the S&P 500 has fallen an average of 0.7% since 2004. We'll see next week whether a rate cut - albeit a measly one - can buck the trend. In the meantime, catch up with our latest thoughts on the topic below. And if you would be so kind... One final request. We are always working to improve the usefulness of our daily editorial.
