In reality yes. But all these posts have me nervous that we get a sudo reality instead... Due to midterms especially.

I'm nervous too but I think the recent rally has boxed him in. If he comes out with a dovish speech the market is going to blow its roof off and that isn't what he wants. I think that WSJ article last Friday was a test to see what would happen if they telegraphed any type of step back and the market failed.
