Fed predictions?

[HereWeGo]

Who’s up for another round of predictions wrt/ the Fed policy statement on Wednesday?

I’ll go with the consensus 25 bps cut, but I think the chance of no move is greater than the chance of another 50 bps cut.

25 bps is in the bag

Very grumpy about the conduct of Helicopter Ben, who has now earned his nickname.

Agree with sdrealtor.

I hate to say it but I expect the same. Everyone I hear says that same thing – “it’s baked in the cake”

Although I think it must be “brownies” and not a cake because I don’t see the justification. The dow started down several days last week, and recovered every time. Add in oil and the weak dollar?

I asked this last time and they cut it too though, so there you go.

I expect 50 – Bernanke knows just how desperate the housing situation will become, and will do anything he can to stimulate/resuscitate the economy before real estate drags it into deflation and depression.

No change…sometimes a deflation is good. I was in China last week. The dollars is literally lowing from day 1 of my visit till the last day (7.436 to about 7.40). Btw, FED has to buy T-bonds to lower the interest rate, it will be hard when everyone is selling and who is paying the cost?
