Another interest rate hike

[TheDude]

Why do you think they only lowered on Obama's watch, and now that he's gone we've already seen two increases?

I don't feel I'm going out on a limb saying the Obama admin. wouldn't have survived it. The interest rates were a band aid for inept policy. The problem was passed onto the next regime.

Didn't seem to have much effect on the markets, up nicely today.

But I do agree with you.
