>>3 hikes would send the emerging markets into a tailspin again.<<

That problem is already passed, imo.

>>What Y2K problems would tightening interest rates solve?<<

If they want to raise rate in a series, they wouldn't want to do them so close to year-end. The financial systems can't handle 2 crisis at the same time. That's why I'd speculate that after August, we would not see any more rate hikes unless inflation totally spins out of control. That may be a good time to be aggressive long again.
