Looks like interest rates are going to rise...caught between a rock and hard place.

Yap, Fed is caught between Iraq and a hard place. If it lowers the
rate to support housing, US dollar dives and inflation jumps. Then
they will have to raise rates.
If they raise the rates housing tanks.
Either is bad for stocks. Better keep rates same and hope for
Goldilocks to come to rescue.

Very good article nimblebear. I agree. The next 6 to 9 months will be important for this regime at the Fed. What will they do?
I'm predicting they will talk very tough on inflation and interest rates but will insure plenty of liquidity continues to flood the system. It's what they've been doing. If they risk a recession I think the attempted restart with lower rates will really cause inflation--or stagflation. JMHO.
