No, is quite obvious what the market thinks (correctly or otherwise).
I posted this on EVN recently:
"markets are ALL behaving rationally in response to that widely watched Speech.
ALL major Currency pairs fell (i.e. USD rose) = anticipation of rate hike;
US 10 Year T-Notes rose over 3.6% = anticipation of rate hike;|
US Equities fell (a bit) = anticipation of rate hike;
Gold itself fell (after initially soaring, always wild swings at such moments) = anticipation of rate hike, but see below.
So, all markets, in all asset classes, are in sync.
Personally, I don't see a rate hike this year (but what I think is irrelevant, the market is speaking loud and clear) as I've said many times on Gold Forum, and so far, I've been right, and recall there's a quadrennial Presidential Election (and also many others, Congress, States etc.) Nov 8, despite Fed Dep. Chair Fischer saying (some highlights), after Yellen spoke:
" *FISCHER: FED IS RESOLUTELY NOT A POLITICAL BODY
*FISCHER: WE AREN'T ELECTION FORECASTERS; LOOK AT ECO. SIGNALS"
Yeah, sure.
Even if we do see a hike in Sept (impossible), then what? As I mentioned above I think the inverse correlation is overrated."

You are not serious that you belief that the market reacts always rational? Who is the market? Mainly what I call the economic cheer squad and/or analyst/economists which are engaged by the big institutions to create a market reactions (for economic gain obviously), One day it might be your anticipated reaction next time it might be the opposite going against the economic theory which was quoted at a similar number last time. Who knows? You might know more than I do and good to have you on board. Imo
