I thought something even crazier -- how bout this:

Fed does an intra-meeting raise in short rates -- .25 or .5 -- doesn't matter which -- to fight the rise in long rates. Market expects it -- initially stocks are set back but then begin to rally. Dollar drops, because it was the expectation of higher rates that was keeping it afloat -- so for a short period -- bonds, stocks and gold go up with the dollar going down

then weakness becomes apparent, bonds rally more, but stocks go down and ... gold goes to the moon <g>
