May 15 disappointment coming?

The Fed next meets on May 15 when it is once again expected to cut interest rates. Twenty-four out of 25 primary dealers expect the central bank to cut its key rate by 0.5 percentage point at that meeting, according to a Reuters poll on Friday.

My comment: A 0.5% rate cut is the very most that could happen. Given inflation in energy and labor costs, and the Dow not too far below all-time highs, a 0.25% cut is possible. And, after that, if we continue to get more signs of inflation, the Fed may be done cutting rates.
