Or the ruse is this alleged bias towards tightening. There have been 15 such biases since 1996, and only one actual tightening. Meanwhile, the coupon passes (another one today - 11 in less than a month) are where he is putting his money, so to speak. Watch what he does, not what he says.

I still think the next rate change will be down.
