The Fed can't lower rates because it'll send the dollar into a plunge and cause all foreign goods to cost more, result: higher inflation. Problem #2. The world is awash in printed money. The printing presses have been going non-stop for years and they haven't slowed down now. Result: higher inflation. Problem #3. Gold is still above $600 which is a good canary in a coal mine. Status: inflation high. Problem #4. Oil prices spiking higher and higher. Result: higher inflation. Problem #5. Demand for ethanol is driving up food prices higher. Result: higher inflation. Problem #6. Bad weather is hurting US crops. Result: higher inflation. The only deflation out there is in computers and LCD TVs, everything else is continuously more costly. Inflation is still out of control in my opinion which is why the Fed always talks about inflation being their primary concern. The Fed may not raise rates in June but they'll have a chance in August, September, October, or December. Here’s the problem.

The info I have seen points to the FED keeping rates still. If their was any way to sanction it, I'd offer you a $1000 even money bet on the fed not raising rates. I dunno.
