I for one am not trying to sensationalize any Fed rate rise, just trying to point out that barring any sentiment related market melt up I think the economy itself may do the Feds job for them. As inflation falls, real rates rise and debt liquidation ensues. The Fed need only sit and watch. The thing is, to get to this point you need rates to fall to 0 and that increases asset value and makes it look like things are strong enough to raise rates. There is always the possibility that sentiment takes over and creates an asset bubble first. This will just make the deflation worse when it arrives and maybe the Fed is trying to talk down assets.
