  • Market indicating Fed won't raise rates in September

    From cnbc.com

    In the course of just a couple of days, things have gotten a lot more complicated for the Federal Reserve. Late last week, when the July jobs numbers came in right around market expectations, expectations surged that the U.S. central bank in September would enact its first rate hike in more than nine years.

Thank God!!
umm actually the market has already started to price in a September rate hike
