charley (~~OJ), I think they have to wait til next weeks #'s come out. FED realizes pandora's box they are in about now vs later. My feeling is if both numbers show strength in economy they immediately raise. But there is 1 in 5 shot in my opinion FED takes pre-emptive strike now and get it out of the way. I truly believe they must raise 1/4 point now or they get behind the curve if next weeks numbers show strength. If the numbers are benign they may wait til august. Gotta run. J.T.
