There was a story in the Wall Street Journal yesterday (or last week perhaps) discussing the possiblity of such a scenario

They might try the ploy 'no change in rates but with bias to raise rates'---who knows?:). GE is going to have a CC and tell everrybody they will meet their guidance--wonder if they got a PPT call ?:) Max

actually a possibility -- that would inspire a bit of confidence. Hope they don't do it.

I think they've really painted themselves into the corner here. If they cut, it's a de facto admission that they see something wrong with the recovery. If they raise, they will be viewed as trying to kill the recovery, such as it is. If they remain unchanged, they're not doing anything to help anyone. The only certainty I see is that their (in)action will have more spin put on it than a tire in the balancing machine. Doug
