Actually it is both a ruse and not a ruse.

Greenspan knows full well if he has to hike the bubble bursts. I believe foreign markets know that too.

Personally I think this was "orchestrated nonsense".
Unless and until Japan and China do not need our markets and our consumers the game continues.

I think that is easily 2 more years, especially if China tries to quell its markets and that seem to be happening.

Everyone and I mean virtually everyone now thinks "it is only a matter of time before interest rates go up". Even Heinz is on board now. Perhaos I am stubborn. Perhaps not. But...... I contend that rates MAY raise BUT not as much as expected. That has been my game plan all along.

I do not think there is a snowball's chance in hell that Europe hikes. Furthermore, if the US markets sell off in "anticipation" of a hike, none will be necessary.

I stick to the call. No hike before the election.
IF and ONLY if jobs improve, do we see a hike at all.
I still have it as 50/50 that the next move is a CUT.
