That is equally confusing. If the MSM and Administration were pushing a false story of an improving economy, then a Fed rate raise would have been consistent with that story. A failure to raise rates by the fed would have indicated that the MSM and administration were lying.
How do you explain that your story may have been true of the previous FMOC meeting when the feds did not raise rates and the market went down but your story is inconsistent with this last FMOC went the Fed did raise rates?
The Fed is playing a con game it is losing. They are screwed now whatever they do.
