Capping credit card interest rates isn't just headlines—it's pure liquidity injection into the real economy.

Slash rates from 30% down to 10%, and you're immediately unlocking monthly breathing room for millions of households. That freed-up cash isn't theoretical; it goes straight into spending patterns, steadies consumer sentiment, and creates market momentum before stimulus checks or rebates even hit accounts.

This is how macro policy reshapes asset flows and market confidence in real time.

I have to question this logic... If interest rates are cut, does the money really get spent? Or is it directly taken by landlords/debtors?

That's correct. Lowering credit card interest rates can indeed directly inject liquidity into the consumer side. Cutting from 30% to 10% immediately provides a monthly buffer of a few hundred dollars. This money will definitely flow into the market rather than debt repayment... The question is, can the policy be implemented?

Lower the credit card debt interest rate so that retail investors can truly breathe a sigh of relief.

Well, this logic sounds reasonable, but I'm just worried that once the policies are announced, various capital will mess it up again.

Only when it is truly cut down will it be the father; right now, it's just armchair strategizing.

A 20 basis point rate cut sounds great, but can it really be implemented? Card debtors are all waiting to see.

Restricting credit card interest rates, in essence, is about reallocating the flow of wealth. Cutting from 30% to 10% sounds simple, but the cash flow that is released... is what can truly rewrite consumer behavior patterns.
