The repost is my spot on @CNBCFastMoney today. The market closed Friday with a 38% probability of a Fed hike next week. I expect they will vote for a hike, and it will get between 3 and 7 votes. This means it will probably not pass (at least right now), but these votes could see 3 to 6 dissents (9 - 3 to 6 - 6). A September hike is 104%. This is why I think we see several dissents. They cannot vote 11 - 1 this meeting and hike next meeting, given that several votes have given speeches saying they think they should hike. This is a new Fed with 12 independent voters. Warsh likes to say "inflation as a choice." Choose to do something about it.
