The “dot plot” could indicate a 4th rate hike in 2018-that would be the only mkt. moving surprise tomorrow

I didn’t know that…if so, then gold could get its ass swatted pretty good

*************************************************************

This hawkishness will manifest itself in a gradual increase in the median dot for 2018, which according to Goldman will show a total of four interest rate hikes, up from the three projected at the March meeting. What is notable is that only one member would have to boost his or her 2018 projection above the March median for next week’s SEP to show a four-hike baseline this year, an increase which is certainly likely tomorrow. Goldman also expects the 2019 median dot to rise by a quarter point, consistent with three hikes in that year and one additional hike in 2020. This 4-3-1 baseline for 2018-19-20 compares to the March projected pace of 3-3-2.
