DislikedEverybody is wondering what is going to happen. The assumption (if a cut happens) is that the stock market will go up and the dollar will go down. However, the market has pretty much priced in at least a .25 cut, and I would argue that the market already has anticipated a .5 cut. I think after a brief period of market disruption, I believe we will have both the stock market and the dollar falling.
The more interesting question is how much pressure europe and england can take before they have to reduce their rates to try and stop their currencies from appreciating. I think not much.
Another interesting question is what happens if rates are not cut. Definite negative for the stock market and at least a brief positive for the dollar.Ignored
