The Fed never does what the Fed funds futures don't expect them to
do, cause if they do, BK - the rates derivatives market
is so enormous, and would sure hate any upsets
(I suspect some day an upset may be coming, maybe now? -g-
Too much weird stuff to be explained otherwise, I agree -g-)
All they can do now is manage
interest rates in the future. It's a new era - you have
to manage the future to change things now. Now, that requires
a lot more thinking -g- Well, I guess it was the market that raised
rates in the future now, not the Fed. -g-

That explains the dollar rally too - the market just raised
rates in the future, so the dollar rallied in the future, and
that caused it to rally now -ggg-

This is BS, I totally agree, but it's the kind of BS that drives
all markets due to the huge size of the derivatives pyramid.
It has to blow up, but your guess is as good as mine -g-
When it does, we'll see weird stuff. We are seeing some of
it now, but maybe not enough to cause the blow-up.
This BS has proved to be remarkably resilient over the years -g-
