Forexcranium,

Hey. THis is where I get confused. Why with the report indicating that inflation has risen thus a possible rate increase does the market jump for a brief period then drop back to its pre report conditions? Wouldn't you want to hold that position and just sell if further indications show that there will not be a rate increase? Thanks.
