Mike, today's WSJ says that there will be not Fed Action after Aug.
due to Y2K concerns, at least some WS analysts are making those comments, do you think they were quoting me? -vbg- that idea still makes alot of sense to me...I'm curious what Henry the V will say about it. Maybe the Aug meeting will be the rate hike meeting.

From today's WSJ

In the U.S., some analysts predict that the Fed will adopt a hands-off
approach to monetary policy after August to avoid roiling financial markets
already spooked by possible Y2K glitches.


This has led some analysts to predict that the Fed might choose to
preemptively tighten interest rates at the Aug. 24 meeting of its
policy-making Federal Open Market Committee, if it appeared that
inflation pressures are still lurking at that point. For the rest of the year, they
see clear Fed sailing until the dust has settled on Y2K problems.
