Dudley Puts The Kibosh On SeptemberTim Duy
The Fed has long argued that the timing of the first rate hike does not matter. I had thought so as well, but that is clearly no longer the case. A rate hike during a period of substantial financial market turmoil would matter a great deal. It looks like the Fed's plans to raise rate will once again be overtaken by events.

A relief rally and bargain-hunting bonanza that sent US equities sharply higher on the opening yesterday evaporated soon afterwards as fear about China's ability to manage its economy seeped back into the market. The upshot? Jitters and unease spilled over into Asia and stocks across the region gyrated from positive to negative territory through the session.
