Hi,
What books are offering a bet on if the Fed (FOMC) will raise interest rates or not?
Thanks

[Fischnasty]

Get an inverse bond Etf

[jjgold]

lol

will go up a fraction of nothing

[Theo_Goodman]

I found a book based out of AUS but they do no accept people from Europe. Line was 1.20 for raise 4.00 for no raise.
Im sure there must be a book offering this.

[jjgold]

If so lucky to get $100 bet

[Foxx]

It's on Betfair. Check financial markets category. What side you looking to take?

[Biff41]

Buy a put or common stock in a major bank like B of A.

[Otters27]

it's happening%100

[Theo_Goodman]

I dont think it is going to happen. Thanks for the tip Ill check out betfair.

[Foxx]

I am with you. Obviously, there is a good chance they may raise or it wouldn't be a heavy favorite, but I think there is a real possibility they may stand put and give an all but certain signal they will raise next time out. Looks like we can get a price of 4.5 and I think it is a very live dog. November CPI numbers come out the day before the decision so a lot will ride on that. There is a thread in the Saloon where I brought up the idea of a bet against a hike a couple weeks ago.

[Theo_Goodman]

Betfair requires KYC I need a book that does not care about that, one that accepts bitcoin would be good as well.

Yes I agree I do not think Yellen has the balls to raise right now.

[Foxx]

Yes I agree I do not think Yellen has the balls to raise right now.

It would take more balls to not raise the rate than to raise them because of the expectation. She painted herself into a corner with some of her language the last 6 months that set that expectation and it would be difficult to get out of it even if she believed standing pat is the correct call. We'll see. Either way, I think the rate will be negative within 2 years.

Get an inverse bond Etf

You can't find one with enough leverage to double up with a .25% bump. Lol

Way to be specific as always. You fool no one you idiot. Explain how I put my foot in my mouth and I will gladly concede.

[jjgold]

Want to be on fed raising rates? Then wise up;

nyse



hey can you do us all a favor and tell us what nyse means, I can't imagine why I would post it... lol think before you post next time.

Brooks, from doing detective work to decipher your purposely cryptic posts, I now see that you were attempting to abbreviate major US stock indexes, rather than the symbols of ETF's that represent them. The problem is that SPY is not the abbreviation for the S&P 500, it is the ticker symbol for SPDR S&P 500 ETF. The abbreviation for the S&P 500 is SPX, as is DJIA (the Dow) and RUT (the Russell 2000).

Again, you are a poser.

I am sure it is annoying for some to read this, but I hate seeing someone act like they are an expert on something they know virtually nothing about. And brooks85 is one of the worst with this I have ever seen. Good evening.

I personally get a kick out of you putting your foot in your mouth over and over.

[jjgold]

Brooks is a talker

He never had a losing trade

Most people losing money last 3 years in market after all the fees

Brooks do you think people just believe your empty posts? You have zero credibility. Zero.

[CappinTerp]

Be careful guys..even if the Fed raises rates a certain degree of that possibility,is all ready priced into the markets ! For me,if the Fed. does raise rates,I would be looking into selling into it... ...with a tight "buy stop limit order.​............good luck guys!!

[CappinTerp]

The Fed Raised rates.....OK....FYI...on the CME, Fed. Fund futures Contracts are all down on the day...DEC 2015,JAN 2016, FEB 2106..All the way to July 2016 where it is unchanged....MY point...we use to have an old saying,which is pretty much spot on:​....Up on anticipation and down on the fact!!....One will find this holds true to all kinds of info. regarding speculation in the fin. markets.....gl

[Whoson1st]

And will the banks pass on a hike to savers with only small savings accounts.... I doubt it..But they will yank your rate up on the credit card.

[CappinTerp]

You are right Whoson,it is discussing how banks and other fin. Institutions rape the public on credit card debt. It's like discrimination for the average joe,they have no moral fiber....they say you don't like it?? OK, go some ware else,but there is no place to go!! It's all the same,they stick together!! A big company can get a lot of new customers by charging "just" % 11, ...but friggin way!!

[jjgold]
