Everyone expects the .25% increase. so, what takes the market down?

The market has been going up for the past week and we're heading into a rate increase on Tuesday, so I'd be amazed if the market didn't go down. Yes, ¬% is expected, but once that is accepted, folks worry about the possibility of a «% increase. If that is dismissed, they worry about the fed setting a neutral vs positive bias. If they stop worrying about that, they start looking to the possibility of another increase in October. Bottom line, the market hates uncertainty. I expect weak til Monday, then 4-5 weeks of UP, starting Tuesday, once the Fed announces. Same as June.
