very unlikely, in my opinion....the stock market reflecting a very unhealthy view of the US economy...a raising of rates tonight may actually crash the equities... however, giving a strong emphasis on inflation fighting intentions may fuel further upside to equities...

in other words, talk of inflation and intention to fight it may give confidence to equities players BUT an actual hike, may be too soon too fast to be well accepted ...

difficult and great balancing act needed...

only expecting hike in august or sept .. but what i'm waiting for is the hawkish sentiment .. in stocks .. which is currently priced in USD so double confirming it would lead to profit taking nia if no hike

agree....if even more hawkish...oil shd drop further....and equities can continue to rally... but if same old same old...with no new hawkish tone (words), then i am afraid, this equities rally will be short lived...

Oil prices rebound, as OPEC predicts fresh highs


LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Oil prices rose on Thursday, supported by risks to unrest in producer nations and a weak dollar, after sliding a day earlier on easing concerns about US energy supplies, analysts said.

The president of OPEC, Algerian Energy Minister Chakib Khelil, predicted Thursday that oil prices could rise to $150 to $170 a barrel during the northern hemisphere summer.

I have always thought Oil price is all speculative up till now, with no clear demand hike.... hence I am actualy bearish on it....

1) Saudi king has pledge increase in output on 22nd June..

2) With recession looming, wont there be any demand destruction? that eventually leads to oil price down?

3) With industries turning to alternative energy, like biofuel cars, etc, wont the price of oil come down too?

4) Hasnt the speculators earn enough liao? :D

Well demand inelastic , supply limited ... how not to go up. Unless suddenly economy goes into depression and a series of deflation happens.
