Interest Rate Hikes Ahead

Finacial markets are anticipating the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates soon, according to today’s news reports.

Last week, markets reflected an expectation of just one rate hike, but now there is talk of three or possibly four. As a result, beginning in March, bond yields have risen.

If Ben Bernake, Fed chariman, continues his tough talk on inflation, markets may be in danger of overcompensation.

To quote my pop, “Don’t borrow trouble.”
