ChainCatcher news, according to Bitcoin.com, economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff has suggested that the Federal Reserve should raise interest rates instead of lowering them, even if it leads to a market crash. He acknowledged that this approach could result in a collapse of the stock and real estate markets, leading to a hard landing and triggering a recession, emphasizing the potential severity of these market consequences.Economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff recently shared his views on the U.S. economy, Federal Reserve policy, market rebounds, and the possibility of upcoming interest rate cuts on his podcast and social media platform X. Peter Schiff pointed out that decades of Federal Reserve policy have made an economic recession inevitable. He suggested that the Federal Reserve should not lower interest rates but should raise them, even if it triggers a market crash, which he believes is a "necessary collapse" to correct the economy.He stated, "The right thing to do is to raise interest rates further and let everything take its course. Of course, the stock market will crash. The real estate market will crash. We will have a hard landing. The economy will go into recession." Despite these views, the gold enthusiast acknowledged that market sentiment is increasingly confident about an imminent interest rate cut, possibly even before the September meeting. This expectation has already begun to influence market psychology.
