"To raise rates"

 

Learn how to read idiot

 

Except the Fed's not raising rates.

 

Do you really need this explained? The Fed met. The Fed didn't raise rates. The Fed DIDN'T say they were going to raise rates in the future. But they DID say that economic conditions dictate keeping interest rates historically low for the foreseeable future.

 

In other words: the Fed didn't raise rates. And the market went up.

Patient, good word!

But the Fed didn't raise rates. Nor did they say they were going to. Read their statement.

They hinted at it relatively soon stupid.

When President Clinton was asked to comment he just mumbled something about the hourly rate.

the more important point is how even a whisper or removal of a single word by the fed causes elation or panic among traders and the prospect of 10% changes when rates actually do rise significantly..

 

it shouldn't be this way. the market should be most dependent on the economy and the success or failure of the companies that comprise it. the fed and things like buy backs and the many other forms of market manipulation make it a perverse casino with "the house" being the big banks and funds and the odds ever in their favor.

Funny.

 

I don't panic when the fed speaks and my P&L has been quite stable over the long term.

 

But keep pushing your BS.
