References to inflation concerns a token gesture... We suspect that the references to inflation concerns in today’s statement may have been necessary to achieve a unanimous vote. We did not anticipate that there would be any dissents to a [quarter percentage point] move, but are a bit surprised that no dissenting votes were cast on the [half percentage point] outcome. In any case, the bottom line is that the Fed’s options remain open. –David Greenlaw, Morgan Stanley Research blogs.wsj.com
