It's confusing by this action of the Fed. It wants to announce rate raise ahead of schedule? Or something else?

They can't do that. It would be an admission that things ARE really bad, when they have been saying and bluffing that things are so good, they need to and can raise rates. Wouldn't want to damage that tiny shred of credibility they have left, now would we ?It's confusing by this action of the Fed. It wants to announce rate raise ahead of schedule? Or something else?

It's very common. It's almost weekly. See each month's calendar of meetings.
Data, even if this statement was in bold letters on the same page, some people would still refuse to see it.

Probably to announce a rate rise ahead and before the stk mkt falls again, before the economic news out of Europe get worst, before the ISIS rats hit again somewhere, before the US becomes more active in Syria.It's confusing by this action of the Fed.

If they don't raise tomorrow or in December their remaining credibility is gone.

Sounds like the FED is the Wizard pf OZ or the Emperor has no Clothes - choose your poison - its all monetary theater and fraud and no substance. Why are we so stupid to believe in a "federal reserve note" with nothing backing it but what the FED says it is. Instead of "In God we trust" on the currency it should read "trust me" with a picture of Bill Clinton on the front and a picture of Monica Lewinsky on the back.
