This article says it all. Why is the Fed raising rates now when the data says the economy is still too fragile to do so? They always claim the data is what they go by. LOL...yeah right.

Why are they choosing now to go this route? I believe there are a couple of different theories. 1)They want to slow the stock market advance down. 2)They know they are behind the curve on raising rates, so they need to begin NOW, not later before the next recession is upon us. 3)They want to take the terminal-economy patient off QE and let the economy sink back into recession before Trump can get his policies in place. Making Trump buy the on coming recession/depression.

I personally think the last theory is why they're now hot to raise so soon before the DATA says all is well. JMO
