Anyone paying attention to recent Fed speak, which I’m sure includes this guy, knew what the answer would be.

The Fed has every reason to sow doubt on the timing of rate decreases and keep markets subdued. What was he going to say? “Yes, we’ve peaked so let’s price everything like risk free returns are about plummet”.

No, the surprise in what jpow said was that the feds model💃💃 suggests no more rate increases(assuming all stays the same) but the market has a .25 increase priced in for may. So the market had to adjust for no more rate hikes instead of +.25.

The big fish were just shuffling money around, its good-ish news so only up from here. We'll beat february's highs shortly. img
