The FOMC has no spine.

[Rickshaw Man]

I will be very surprised if they say anything negative. They should signal a rise in rates. Inflation is something you don't want to let out of the bottle. The last few FOMC chairs were complete sellouts. I expect nothing different from the current clown.

I will certainly be blown away if Powell talks tough, but I seriously doubt it.

The FOMC is showing its spine by keep rates low in the face of surprises in inflation prints. Whether they are right or wrong is a different story.

Yep and to think Greenie, Bernie and JayP are Republicans. Just as clueless Yeltsin err I mean Yellen at least is a Democrat. But when it comes to power R or D all the same.

Don't worry folks stock indexes will close green. Fear not.

If by a slim chance we close red are sell-off for a few days, don't worry the FOMC will start jawboning to get it back up. You really can't lose in this rigged market.
