se o Cramer fica com 'tremeliques' pela inação da FED... se fosse europeu então andava a ter colapsos repetidos devido ao "efeito mumificado" do BCE

"Time for the Fed to Take Action"

"Don't call me an alarmist. But if I hear one more person on television say the Federal Reserve isn't going to raise rates until August, I think I am going to have to scream -- and I may just do it on television.

The Fed is behind the curve. The economy is incredibly strong. It has been creating jobs for months, as we now have learned. We can wait until August and see that to be the case, or the Fed can begin to raise rates gradually now, slowly taking them up so that if things slip back, it has some room to maneuver.


Of course, the Fed isn't a trader. It doesn't try to buy low and average in and then blow out as things get better (even though that would make sense as a policy, in my book).

But a complacent Fed is going to be a Fed playing catch-up with half-point increments meeting after meeting, something that would be devastating to the markets.

Better to act now. The longer it doesn't act, the less I like the market. "
