Fed’s Hawkishness Roils the Capital Markets

The money is intended to be used for enhanced tax enforcement, especially through the potential hiring of 87,000 new IRS agents who, to borrow a phrase from the Declaration of Independence, will be further eating out the substance of the...

Private versus Government Health Insurance: They Are Not the Same

Insurance is a market institution—i.e., it emerged through voluntary exchange aiming at satisfying the needs of the parties involved.

An absurd summation of absurd history for an absurd day. If only it wasn’t so serious.

It is not So Much about the Fed’s hike Today but the Forward Guidance

Overview: A consolidative tone has emerged ahead of the outcome of the FOMC meeting later today. The focus is not so much on the 75 bp rate hike, but on its forward guidance. Many expect the Fed to signal it will return to a 50 bp move next month, but we are not convinced that it will go beyond indicating that 50 bp or 75 bp will be debated in December, depending on the data. The market has a 5% terminal rate discounted. The Fed does not need to validate it now....
