Fed bet: 25 bps raise and almost no change in bias statement. |
|
No reason to care, but
I made a different bet in GD the other day, saying that the Fed would change the bias statement in a way that would cheer stock investors up a bit, but I think that was wrong. Looking at the core CPI from the past few months, this morning's GDP revision and the PCE deflator, I think the Fed will raise rates 25 basis points and make almost no change to their bias statement from the last go-around.
See you at 11:15 Pacific time.

5. Okay, 25 basis points and a little hint of a pause, |
|
so I was wrong on the bias statement.
Let the cartoons begin!

Had some unhealthful Chinese food and read one of the free weekly rags.
How was your lunch?
