Here she comes: Fed may raise rates as soon as next spring, Yellen suggests
Amigo, this is the old intimidation tactic.

We start talking about tapering. Did not cause a "flight to quality" Let's try talking about raising interest rates and see what happens.

The U.S. Federal Reserve will probably end its massive bond-buying program this fall, and could start raising interest rates around six months later, Fed Chair Janet Yellen said on Wednesday, in a comment which sent stocks and bonds tumbling.


Why this is intimidation, you may be asking? Because the FED should be speak a lot but say nothing. Wasn't it the case i the past?
Why speak clear its intention six months before the FED plan to do something?
