analysis avoid believe brief economy hike interest rate slowing
My sense from just this brief analysis is we may avoid a rate hike in August. If you believe the economy is slowing down, we may be at the end of interest rate increases.

If you look at the correction that's already occurred in the leadership group, tech, over the past few weeks, it's been pretty severe.
