Given the Fed fund futures are pricing in (at least) 80% chance of 50 BP....and now Rivlin comes out and says "50" (even if speculation) and market rallies....makes me think that the real "50" won't have all that much zip- at least not immediately.....maybe some fund managers who are waiting to be absolutely sure of the 50 will be buying big on Tuesday...but, the news is definently getting out there...this is not going to be a surprise to many, or even a few........even more so today after today...if you believe in the power of the 50, I'd think one would already be long here...UNLESS you are waiting for a "sell the news" and pick up stocks at cheaper prices (when earnings visibility may be more clear)...Latter scenario seems more possible to me.. (didn't mean to imply Rivlin knows anything....but once the rumor gets started, and then confirmed (rightly or wrongly) by the tube....well....)
