So Janet Yellen and the rest of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors voting members decided to hold off longer on tightening. Since the announcement came out the S&P 500 has dropped roughly 50 points as of mid-morning today. “Perhaps a little buy the rumor, sell the fact” action. How much would the market be down if they had raised interest rates 25-basis points to a Fed Funds target of 0.25% to 0.50%? Remember this is what we are discussing.
