I don't think it will be just a threat this time. Banks, Pension Funds, Insurance companies need rates to rise and I think they have taking it on the chin long enough. Inflation/rate hikes aren't necessarily a bad thing.....it will strengthen the dollar making imports to us cheaper. Conversely, there is some drawbacks, i.e., home market could be effected, loan interest loss to the consumer, gold tanking, bond/treasuries getting whacked.
