Two weeks after the Fed’s Latest 25 Bp rate hike, most if not all the economists I listened to said it was very likely (in their opinions) the FED would not increase/decrease rates next month. I was shaking my head, but who was I to disagree. They convinced me I guess. Just recently I’ve heard a few folks saying don’t be surprised with another 25 BP hike Next month…. So what do you think?
JMHO, but I don’t think the FED has much of a choice here. They have to raise again. Shit is going to break, and that’s unfortunate. And I’m not excusing the FED because they contributed heavily in causing this mess in the first place with a decade of free money.
I agree what else can they really do but raise rates again. I heard the same thing that there would be a pause but after they look at their favorite gauge the PCE report it’s still a long ways from the 2% level they want to achieve.
