    They will announce that they are a bunch of Wall St Poodles headed by an academic who hides behind his idiot Professor's beard when anybody mentions 'inflation'.

  3. I agree. They already did that once, so that could be the back up plan. I vote leave it alone.

  4. Can you imagine if the FED changed their whole tone and outlook on the economy. Realized inflation and recession is a forseeable problem and raised rates?

    Man, that would be a great waterfall sell off.

  7. It would take a pair of steel balls to hold rates as they are. Balls are something the Fed does not have.
