if Fed is smart, it should make it clear thru whatever language that they are prepared to hike, and hint enough for how much and when. that way mkt would know and not to worry or guess how much and when any more.


Something to consider is that language that specific would be completely uncharacteristic of the Fed and that action itself might freak out the market ;-)

After all saying something like "we are really concerned about inflation so we fully expect to raise rates by .25 or .5 by X date" is quite a bit different than saying "the FOMC believes the balance of risk is weighted more heavily towards price inflation than price deflation"

LOL !!!

besides if the info is specific all the talking heads will have nothing to talk about.
