And it is interesting he just happened to have his "wonderful" call with Xi on the first day of the Fed meeting. Now I'm inclined to think the Fed will say they're on hold until July, now that Trump's deal may come to fruition at the end of the month.

That's what im thinking. FOMC loves there data dependent stance. How can they cut rates with the markets almost back to all time highs and not look politically captive. I just don't see it, unless they just don't care.
