Amy Nixon(@texasrunnerDFW):When people say they want rate hikes, what they actually want is asset price depreciation They don’t actually want it to cost more for them to borrow money But guess what? We hiked 11 times between 2022 and 2025, and asset prices went up across the board (with a few outlier pocket housing markets) because our goverment won’t stop spending and printing money So, for people who didn’t yet own assets before 2021, those assets now both cost more AND require higher interest payments if you don’t have the capital to purchase them outright You don’t want rate hikes. You just think you do.
