Thread: FED Intrest Rate Poll

I voted "Rally", but I have a feeling there's enough uncertainty in oil and international situations that it won't be major. Plus, some of the rally is probably already built in.....

Short term rally for a few days to be sure.

shouldnt this poll close before the feds announce the decision?

Correct Soldat! I think it's May 10th, Right? It's over in 4 days.

Might need a different poll....

"When the FED raises rates again at the next meeting, will the market....."

It turns on a dime around here, don't it?

Ah! HHHHHMMMMmmmmmm????????????? just reverse this one and you have the answer!!

Sell the news. When the pause does occur, there might be a brief rally followed by selling on the news.

I've got a feeling that Old Burntankle may raise rates, even if it's not needed! Down we go---------> AAAAHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh SPLAT!
BUT!!!!! it can go either way? May have to play it safe in the "G"?????? And possibly miss a big RALLY? Decisions, decisions??????? If I stay in the "I" fund it will react with the US Markets..............HELP!!!!!!!

OPINION: Increase is already in the mix, so no big sell-off likely(unless they make some noise about more increases likely in the next meeting) and the I fund will show a slight to moderate gain by Friday for the week.

However, if there is a pause, strap on the rocket pack!

Just guessing really .

We are all guessing SP! Need a best guess, Insider Information would be nice!
It would be neat if we could cheat!!!!

Is a BEAR Market on the way? These guys think it is a possibility.
